DNA Seminar 2022 Posted 20 March 2022 by Alan MoorhouseDNA Seminar Beauchamp College, Ridgeway, Oadby, Leicestershire LE2 5TP 09:30am for 10:00am on Saturday 14th May 2022 Four years since our last visit to this venue, we are now holding our seventh DNA seminar. This is a fast growing and rapidly changing area and covers a wide range of knowledge and interests. We are again planning for three parallel streams in addition to the opening and closing sessions. There will be a dedicated “Introduction to DNA” stream, each talk building from the previous one, (designed such that a delegate with little or no previous DNA knowledge is expected/encouraged to attend all talks offered in this stream), with a further choice of two other talks at each time slot for those wishing to further enhance their Y-DNA or Autosomal DNA learning. Whatever your level of knowledge – new to DNA, keen but confused or an old hand – there will be something for everyone at Oadby on 14th May. Click for the full programme.
