Your most valuable DNA match may not be a person—it may be a project!
DNA projects at FamilyTreeDNA and GEDmatch can provide expert guidance, connect you with researchers pursuing the same questions, and place your DNA results into a broader historical and genealogical context.
In this session, Chris and Rita will explore the different types of projects available, explain how they can support surname, geographic and haplogroup research, and demonstrate how project participation can help break down brick walls, identify new testing opportunities, and accelerate your family history discoveries. Whether you are new to DNA or an experienced genetic genealogist, you may discover that projects are the hidden superpower you have been overlooking.
Price of admission: 63.00 AUD (discounts available)
