The Double Helix
(from £1000)
If you’d like an in-depth exploration of your autosomal DNA results, then this is the package for you!
The standard version of The Double Helix (£1000) is aimed at individuals who have already taken an autosomal DNA test with a major provider (e.g. Ancestry, MyHeritage, 23andMe). The Double Helix package includes:
- Project development sessions: we’ll consult with you to hone and focus the research;
- 20 focus hours, used for formal DNA analysis, project development sessions, report writing and quality checks;
- DNA techniques potentially including cluster analysis, chromosome mapping, phasing and branch development amongst others, according to project needs and available match data;
- Small reprographics budget for specialist evidence;
- Detailed report, including insights, charts and key findings, presented in an attractive bound volume.
Please note that the standard Double Helix package does not include a DNA test kit. If you have not yet tested your autosomal DNA, we can advise you on suitable third-party companies to purchase a test from to get your journey underway.
