If you’re in Iowa and would like hands on assistance to make sense of your research, check out the classes offered by Iowa DNA Project’s own Dr Bryant McAllister of the University of Iowa.
Course Description and Details
Each of these courses is designed to support the goals of 1) encouraging understanding of the biological basis of commercial DNA test results, and 2) fostering proficiency navigating the web interface and interpreting DNA test results. These courses are intended for individuals with DNA test results already available. Classes will involve a mix of presentation, demonstration, and guided activity.
Bryant McAllister, PhD, Associate Professor of Biology at The University of Iowa is the instructor for these courses. As a scientist with a focus in evolutionary genetics, Dr. McAllister is an educator able to provide broad insights to individuals looking to apply DNA testing to family history research.

I don’t drive in D.M. but might be interested in carpooling with someone from north Iowa who does. It’s a stiff price for me so I would only do one class.

Yesterday, I enrolled in the “Intermediate Course: Building DNA Families”. Looking forward to the event and the opportunity to network with other Iowa Genetic Genealogist!
