23andMe’s Presentations at ASHG

This week our scientists have been busy at the American Society of Human Genetics Annual Meeting in San Francisco.

As promised we’re putting up links to each of the posters that we presented at the meeting. It gives you a sense of the breadth and depth of 23andMe’s research and our commitment to share our findings with our customers.
