National DNA Day is April 25, 2019!

National DNA Day is April 25th this year. Watch for testing companies to offer specials on purchasing DNA test kits.

National DNA Day commemorates the completion of the Human Genome Project in April 2003 and the discovery of the double helix of DNA in 1953. 

This year marks the 16th anniversary of DNA Day.

If DNA is a topic that interests you and you are interested in learning more, both SLIG and SLIG Academy will be offering courses on DNA topics in 2020. Visit www.slig.ugagenealogy.org for more information.
