BI 120 Genetics & Genealogy
Who are we and where do we come from? This course addresses that question by understanding the genetics that underlie personalized genetic ancestry test results and relating this to students’ family trees and the historical context surrounding specific individuals in those trees. Each student will explore their own individual family genealogy and genetic history. In addition, the class as a whole will research the family genealogy of people of different ethnicity within the Sacred Heart community and compare the social and cultural history impacting their family trees.
