L_4_08 — Genetic Genealogy and Forensic Genomics
Genetic genealogy — the use of DNA testing for genealogical purposes — has undergone an explosive expansion since the early 2000s, driven by direct-to-consumer (DTC) genetic testing companies (23andMe, AncestryDNA, MyHer
L_4_15 — Y-Chromosome and mtDNA Mismatch Patterns in Human Populations
