Algunes de les qüestions que intenta respondre el grup de Genòmica de la individualitat són: Què hi ha als genomes que ens fa ser com som? Què ens diu de la nostra ascendència? Com afecta la nostra susceptibilitat a les malalties? Com pot això aplicar-se a la pràctica (per exemple, en la genètica forense)? En concret, la recerca que duu a terme aquest grup se centra en l’estructura genètica, els contactes i, molt especialment, en poblacions aïllades geogràficament o socialment, de les dues bandes del Mediterrani occidental.
