Definitions
It should be noted that the synonym "Caucasian", while widely used in some part of the world, has strong associations with notions of white supremancy and should be avoided whenever possible. Includes individuals who either self-report or have been described by authors as European, Caucasian, White or one of the sub-populations from this region (e.g Dutch). This category also includes individuals who genetically cluster with reference populations from this region, for example 1000 Genomes and/or HapMap CEU, FIN, GBR, IBS and TSI populations.
