Fascination Science public lecture tomorrow (Tuesday 27 August) - How your DNA makes you, you
We look forward to seeing you tomorrow evening at the next instalment of the Fascination Science series. It will be held in the Sir Neil Waters Lecture Theatre at Massey University's Auckland campus in Albany from 7pm-8.30pm on Tuesday 27 August.
HOW YOUR DNA MAKES YOU, YOU
Recent technological advances have made it possible to figure out the sequence of all three billion basepairs in the human genome. Scientists have since used this data to understand ancestry, to predict health outcomes and even solve crimes. Dr Olin Silander will discuss how these technological advances in DNA sequencing came about, how they help us to understand human history and ancestry, and whether knowing your genome sequence actually helps to predict how you look, feel, and behave.
