It's 4/20, and you know exactly what that means: It's National DNA Day! (What, were you expecting something else?) Yep -- this is
the official day to commemorate the 1953 publishing of the first scientific paper on the
double-helix structure of DNA, which was famously co-authored by
James Watson and
Francis Crick (with the sometimes overlooked
contributions of others.) Anyway, to celebrate, educational non-profit powerhouse
Khan Academy has announced
a partnership with personal genetics testing company
23andMe to "promote the importance of genetics education." Specifically, this means that Khan Academy's website now has educational videos produced by 23AndMe on topics
such as Genetics 101.
