Shownotes Transcript

Over the 1960s through 1980s, more was learned about the structure of chromosomes and the functions of some genes. However, we did not have a comprehensive map of the entire human genome. Learn how molecular biology techniques become more sophisticated, and scientists could start determining the nucleotide sequence of small portions of chromosomes.------------------------------------------Join DNA Dan each month as he dives deep into the world of genetics, genomics, DNA, and the future of precision genomic medicine. Dan discusses health and ancestry genetic testing, forensic genetics, genetics and mental health, common myths about genetics, and more. DNA Dan, SCU Professor of Genomics, Dan Handley, M.S., Ph.D., shares his knowledge from his over 30 years of experience in the world of advanced genomics research and biotechnology. Please visit our website for more information about Southern California University of Health Science's Master of Science Program in Human Genetics & Genomics. https://bit.ly/SCU-DNA_Dan
