MyHeritage DNA Testing and Results
MyHeritage DNA Testing and Results
Daniel Horowitz discussed the wide array of tools available for DNA analysis found at MyHeritage including Smart Matches™ and the Theory of Family Relativity™. He also covered autoclusters and the chromosome browser to determine just how you are related to those cousin matches that pop up. Daniel gave an in-depth review of how to best use MyHeritage's DNA tools. For those who have tested elsewhere and have considered uploading your results to MyHeritage, this lecture gave an idea of what MyHeritage offers that may not be found with other platforms.
