How can BGA estimates be used?
We, at DNAPrint®, believe that an objective assessment of the biological component of human ancestry is possible and that such research could enrich our lives in a number of ways: • Understanding health disparities. Are there genetic contributions to the higher rates of hypertension and diabetes in African Americans or the higher rates of dementia in European Americans? If not, then what are the cultural or environmental differences that underlie the prevailing differences? Studies of these and other diseases require independent, objective measures of BioGeographical Ancestry (BGA). • Estimates of BGA can help reconnect individuals separated by adoption, or some other event, with their ancestral populations. • Even if a person is not particularly motivated to reconnect with ancestors, he or she can uncover the past of their family either to verify family legends or to search for forgotten roots. • In the near future, we hope to allow customers to compare their ancestral proportions to

Even if a person is not particularly motivated to reconnect with ancestors, he or she can uncover the past of their family either to verify family legends or to search for forgotten roots. In the near future, we hope to allow customers to compare their ancestral proportions to others in their family, town, city, or state who have chosen to participate. Because it is based on DNA, and unlike the census, this new tool will provide the most accurate demographics da
