Between 3500 B.C. and 3000 B.C., the Indo-European culture, located between Europe and Asia, had as its backbone its technology the wheel, metalworking and agriculture and livestock farming.

This population had its own language, culture and religionfrom which a large number of ethnic groups and languages emerged in both Europe and Asia.

However, the language spoken by the Basques (Euskera) is of pre-Indo-European origin and of different provenance. This is a group of languages of which only a few have survived to the present day. Some of those that disappeared were Iberian, Tartessian or Etruscan. Curiously, Euskera shares certain typological similarities with the Caucasian languages, although several authors point out that this may be due to chance.

Basque ethnicity

The debate on the origin of the Basque ethnic group is very controversial. Some experts believe that they evolved from the Cro-Magnons, when they sought refuge from a period of glaciation and settled in the western Pyrenees.

What is certain is that Roman historians, such as Pliny, attest to the presence of the Vascones in the north of the Iberian Peninsula and the Aquitans in southwestern France. These two populations shared similarities in terms of culture and genetic ancestry. At present, the Basque ethnic group is present in what today would be the communities of Navarre and the Basque Country. (Spain) and the French Basque Country (France).

Digestive Medicine

For digestive clinics or physicians. Provides information on the genetic predisposition to develop diseases of the digestive system- such as Chron's, Inflammatory Bowel Disease among many others - as well as intolerances. This supports a possible early diagnosis and prevention. The results of this study are very positive, allowing for more precise and personalized interventions to improve the quality of life of the patients.

Cardio

The applicability and importance of the PRSs in cardio is endorsed by the American Heart Association (AHA). The applicability of PRS is made possible thanks to this tool that helps in the cardiovascular disease prevention: identifying patients with a higher genetic risk of developing conditions such as diabetes, thromboembolism, hypercholesterolemia, and coronary artery disease (CAD), among others, enabling early interventions and preventive measures to improve patients' cardiovascular health.

Biobanks, Pharmacies and CROs

Access and consultation of genetic data relevant to health and pharmacology. Thanks to this tool, it is possible to know the predisposition of patients to suffer adverse effects and what dose adjustments are necessary for more than 150 drugs, thus improving safety, efficacy and treatment personalization. This information is backed by Stanford University and approved by the FDA and gives solutions for biobanks, and research organizations.

Fitness and wellness centers

Genetic analysis allows for the design of personalized training programs that, taking into account genetic characteristics focused on the world of sports, such as muscle fiber types and predisposition to injuries, maximize performance and reduce the risk of injuries. Additionally, by considering genetic factors related to sleep and longevity, recommendations can be offered for a healthy and sustainable lifestyle.
