‘Genetic mapping’: Saan nga ba nagmula ang Pinoy?
SAAN nga ba talaga nagmula ang lahing Pinoy?

Ito ang kinumpirma ng Espanyol na biologist na si Antonio Gonzalez-Martin sa isang kumperensyang pinamagatang Todos Somos Mestizos (We Are All Mixed) noong Hulyo 24 na ginanap sa Instituto Cervantes de Manila.
