Advanced Topics in DNA 5 of 5: Advanced Ethnicity and Traits
Wed, December 16 2026: 19:00 UTC
Advanced Ethnicity and Traits – Delve into how genetic testing reveals insights into our traits and predispositions beyond ancestry. This lecture will explore how specific genetic markers can indicate tendencies like athletic ability, caffeine metabolism, and risk-taking behavior. We will also dive into the science behind AncestryDNA’s Genetic Communities (and groups at 23andMe and MyHeritage) and how they differ from traditional ethnicity analyses.
