I suggest you look at that. In addition to that, I remember seeing some research papers published on Ashkenazi Jews and will look for them if you really see the need. Just to support the above point, my cousin who is an Ashkenazi Jew has Familial Dysautonomy and my other cousin who is also an Ashkenazi Jew has Crohn's Disease.

Judaism is not a race. There is nothing biologically which separates a Jew(ish person) from a non-Jew(ish person). It is OK to call it a culture, but not a race. --Mets501
