By purchasing a Geno 2.0 kit and participating in the Genographic Project, you can contribute to a broader, more detailed picture of our shared history while learning possibly surprising things about your own story. An Invitation From National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Spencer Wells Hello, Friend, As a population geneticist, I've spent years studying humanity's broad genetic spectrum and the mysteries of early human migration. In 2005, we launched the Genographic Project—tracing the history of humankind through DNA—with a team of scientists around the world. Since then, more than 627,00 people have participated—and learned about their own ancestry in the process. In 2012, we launched Geno 2.0, and the results have been groundbreaking. Using an exclusive, custom-built genotyping chip, we test nearly 150,000 DNA markers that have been specifically selected to provide us with unprecedented ancestry-related information As people continue to join and contribute their results to our ongoing research, our findings will deepen, and we will gain a richer understanding about ourselves and the history of the human journey. Consider making a lasting and meaningful contribution to the book of human history. Join the Genographic Project today. Click here to learn more.
