Alec Ferretti is a gem! Loved his Strategies To Analyze Endogamous DNA! Great personality, energy, enthusiasm & sense of humor! Loved his line “I am a cousin to my ficus tree!” I’m a life-long gardener & genealogist so his comment really hit home!
Host was very good and congenial and the speaker was excellent. He made a very complex subject understandable and approachable. I left with renewed confidence in the best approach to Endogamous dna
Very informative and clearly explained. Thank you.
good information, presented clearly
When I heard that this seminar was for medium to advanced researchers of DNA, I was thinking I had bitten off, more than I could chew by registering. However, I decided to stay and was pleasantly surprised at how much I actually got from the Webinar. Thank you so much a)for the warning, and b) for a great time.
Well organized, well paced, lots of new (to me) information.
Thank you
Absolutely brilliant! Very interesting and clearly explained.
