DNA Today from Hair of the Past
Short blog this week as I'm slammed with work. I just read something I think is super interesting - Hair DNA Advance Hailed as Forensic Game Changer. A family member knows I'm interested in DNA and genealogy and passed the article along to me. Personally I think it's going to be a boon to family genealogy once the new technology gets simplified. Imagine being able to take in grandpa's hair brush or that Victorian hair ring you inherited but have no idea who it originally belonged to! Better yet, think of mummies that still have clumps of hair or even woolly mammoths. I can't even imagine all the new information that will result from these DNA samples.
