Discover what different results mean. Get hints on how to use this tool in your research by working along with the class through three activities designed to help participants understand how to use different aspects of chromosome browsers in their personal research. We will cover the chromosome browsers offered at 23andMe and FamilyTreeDNA, as well as how the GEDmatch chromosome browsers work with all 3 major testing companies.
