DNA Day AMA series
April 18, 2016 - April 25, 2016
Join us for the National DNA Day “Ask Me Anything” (AMA) Series! Each day during the week leading up to National DNA Day, Monday, April 18th – Friday, April 22nd, and on Monday, April 25th, a different expert will be answering questions on the reddit science community forum: “/r/Science“.
The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), The American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG) and pgEd are joining forces to bring prominent geneticists from a variety of fields to reddit so you can “Ask Them Anything.”
Not sure what an “Ask Me Anything” is? Find previous /r/Science AMAs here.
If you are new to reddit, and want to get involved in the discussion, learn more about how to participate at reddit_101.
