SUMMARY:ACGS Webinar - Gene-ology: How We Understand Genetic Disorders Through Genealogy
DESCRIPTION:Gene-ology: How we Understand Genetic Disorders Through Genealogy combines fundamental concepts in genetics\, genealogical research methods\, and French-Canadian history to provide a comprehensive understanding of common French-Canadian genetic disorders. It examines how these disorders are passed down through generations and how they manifest in genealogical records. Attendees will learn about the patterns of inheritance and the significance of these conditions within the context of French-Canadian genealogy. The presentation will also provide a practical guide on how to use ACGS resources to uncover disease patterns within family histories. It will cover essential terminology associated with medicine and genetic disorders\, making it easier for participants to interpret both genealogical and medical records. Additionally\, the session will briefly discuss the value of modern genetic testing in genealogical research\, exploring how it complements traditional methods by offering deeper insights into hereditary conditions. It will also cover ethical considerations\, focusing on privacy and informed consent in genetic genealogy. \n\nJoin us on February 22\, 2025\, at 4 pm (ET)
