Not at all. Nothing they do is remotely that complicated. If you know your way around C++, R or Python and understand basic genetics you'll pretty much be fine. And nowadays the coding part is not even much of a barrier thanks to LLMs like GPT. Hell, I bet you a lot of these geneticists were originally just given a set of code blocks to copy-paste and spam for their various analyses and aren't in a lot of cases truly competent C++ coders or whatever else.
To be honest, DIY work is sorely needed because most population geneticists are COMPLETELY bereft of archaeological, historical or cultural anthropological knowledge and therefore make some of the dumbest takes known to man as David over at Eurogenes recently pointed out:
Leo Speidel & Pontus Skoglund
This quote, from a new paper at Nature , High-resolution genomic history of early medieval Europe by Speidel et al., is the most idiotic ta...

100% percent cosign. Also, you don't even need their PhDs or degrees to get published in places like Nature. Take the time to compose a well-written scientific paper in the right format, know the right people and they'd let even some dude with no bachelors' paper through if it was good enough. No joke.
That being said, I basically studied Analytics/Data Science. Stats and any form of data analysis is right up my alley. People with my qualifications frequently do Bioinformatics and pop-gen type work. There's like one conversation between me and the right person or a few side certs from switching from Finance to their field. But I prefer the latter field for obvious reasons...

If you count ANA, which very much is genetically SSA and clusters like it, they're all about 15-25%. Give or take.
Are somalis 60% or is it more cuz some people said theres SSA baked into the natufian and do all the qabils have the same autosomal dna ?

A Taiwanese individual posted this a while back.
The resolution of the data for the samples was too low for producing coordinates, according to a guy who does those sorts of work. I guess that comes with the "shallow shotgun sequencing."
An mtDNA analysis was done on the same pastoralists of this study. Results showed the individual had a very basal haplogroup N.

Because Africa’s climate hampers DNA preservation, knowledge of its genetic variability is mainly restricted to modern samples, even though population genetics dynamics and back-migrations from Eurasia may have modified haplotype frequencies, ...

I think the earliest forms of mummification were done on a child within that pastoralist descent group some millennia or more after those Takarkori people.
