I sent my saliva tube to 23andMe about two weeks ago, which means I won’t be able to start exploring my genome for another couple weeks.
In the meantime, I’m still trying to recuperate from my record-setting saliva spitting.
23andMe’s blog the spittoon announced three pretty cool things yesterday:
First, they added a paternal ancestry feature so you can track your paternal lines along with your maternal lines.
Second, the Gene Journal just added 30 more conditions and traits (Yay! More unfortunate predispositions to track).
And, third, they are letting anyone interested in 23andMe to sign-up for a demo account.
The demo account will let you explore their services features using genetic data from the “Mendel Family.” Go sign-up for a demo account here.
Want another reasons to sign-up for a demo account besides for getting to peep the Mendel Family’s (their fake) genetic data?
If you sign-up for a demo account I can share my actual 23andMe genetic profile with you when I get it (only a few more weeks).
You heard me right. I can share my actual genetic profile with you.
