Is there genetic evidence of Jews in Portugal?

Portugal was the crucible of the Western Sephardim. Not everyone left. Is there such a thing as Sephardic DNA? Can members of diaspora Sephardic communities be linked to individuals in Portugal? What can genetic studies in Portugal tell us about Sephardic migration? Can genetics be a tool in unravelling the history of the Sephardic diaspora?
Inês Nogueiro was born in northeastern Portugal, a region with a rich Jewish history. For the last 15 years, she has studied Iberian Jewish history from a population genetics perspective. She has a Ph.D. in Biology (Population Genetics of Jewish populations) from the University of Oporto. In 2018 she started a project with Prof Karl Skorecki at Bar Ilan University in Israel to construct a genetic database for the Iberian Sephardic Jews. She volunteers for a number of initiatives to promote interest in Sephardic history.
