    That’s super interesting!

    I’ve had my genes sequenced and linked to my anonymized medical records for study (this will be retained and maintained for up to 100 years after my death). I also did a mutation screening (checking for cancers and other stuff mostly).

    So far I’ve learned I have 3 mutations that are non-harmful which were previously unidentified. I get a letter every few years with new results as they come in.

    Maybe I’m also predisposed to sharing! I really just did it because it doesn’t impact me at all, but could be very helpful down the line.
