Understanding to aid in more informed health choices
CONWAY, Ark. (Arkansas PBS) — “Your DNA Secrets Revealed,” a new special airing on Arkansas PBS Tuesday, Dec. 6, at 7 p.m., uncovers the science behind DNA and reveals the role that genetics plays in peoples’ lives. Hosted by author, educator and genetic genealogist Diahan Southard, the program will help viewers understand how the secrets of their future might lie in their past – and why genealogical study is critical.
With the latest technology, putting genealogy and the science of DNA together can help everyone chart a better path forward. Interviews with noted genealogists, biologists and researchers show the impact of understanding genetics for everyone.
“Your DNA Secrets Revealed” shares transformative stories of individuals who discovered surprising results from testing their DNA – and reveals how those results helped them make smarter, more informed choices about their health and well-being.
Southard has 20+ years of genetic genealogy experience, teaches internationally, writes for popular magazines, authored Your DNA Guide–The Book, and produces Your DNA Guide–the Academy, an online learning experience.
