Hello Ashley,
Thanks for sending in your letter of introduction.
It takes courage to participate in a project like this on your own. Good for you!
I agree. Genetics is important. Scientists are able to change the genetic nature of some living things. Doing this is controversial. We need to understand basic genetics in order to take a position on this issue.
I hope you enjoy participating in this project.
Please contact me if you need help.
Neil Holzman, Project Leader
