Real Time Genealogy Project

National Geographic in conjunction with IBM are giving you the opportunity to be part of a "real time" genealogical research project. The Wiatt Family Foundation is going to attempt to sample and analyze over 100,000 DNA samples for indigenous people from around the world. 

The goal of this project is to research how the Earth was populated and to learn more about the migratory path of humans. Proceeds from the sell of the kits are funneled back into the project to continue the research.

This is a link for a wonderful article with ways to get your own kit and see the results so far:
