Dear I2b1/M223 Project Members, I am happy to share the news: our latest WTY fundraising initiative has been a success! Thanks to the generosity of many of our project members, not only did we have enough funds to send two members from the M284+ subgroup of M223 to WTY (one Isles E and one Isles Sc), we were also able to send participants from several other subgroups as well. In total, we currently have no less than 7 WTY participants, from all areas of our project: 199243 - Gunning (Isles Sc) 12526 - Farmer (Isles E) 127052 - McCall (Cont 1) 65183 - Michaels (Cont 2b, P95-) 83425 - Wilson (I2b1-XX) E5922 - Hofstee (I2b1-X) 48274 - Griffin (Roots Group 2a) When the exams are completed, we should have several new SNP's that could be useful to many members of our project. Good luck to our participants and, once again, I would like to thank all of you who donated and volunteered. Aaron Torres I2b1/M223 Project Administrator
