Show notes:
In the show, The Bio Busters professors, Dr. A and Dr. C, discuss the concept of genetic testing as it relates to ancestry. The docs discuss the foundational concepts of how DNA testing works and what exactly these tests are purported to measure. Additionally, they compare the pros and cons of three major types of ancestry tests, as well as what you should expect/not expect when using each of these tests. Keep the discussion and comments going on the iTunes review section, or feel free to e-mail the podcast with future show ideas and thoughts on the current show.
