One program track will be devoted to DNA, with talks on family medical history, the use of DNA testing for genealogy, and privacy/legal issues in DNA testing. The six other sessions will include an introduction to the Immigration History Research Center, located in Minneapolis, two beginning genealogy talks, and three more-advanced talks. An MGS members' meeting as well as a Q&A session will be held during the lunch hour-see http://www.mngs.org/quarterly for more details.
