Are aboriginal people genetically different?

As part of an international team of scientists and Aboriginal Australians, researchers from the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute also showed that Aboriginal Australian and Papuan people have remained genetically independent from the rest of the world until very recent times.

What race are aboriginal peoples?

Studies regarding the genetic make-up of Aboriginal groups are still ongoing, but evidence has suggested that they have genetic inheritance from ancient Asian but not more modern peoples, share some similarities with Papuans, but have been isolated from Southeast Asia for a very long time.
