I'm being awarded the @ihgs.bsky.social Julian Bickersteth Medal - awarded 'to persons who have made notable and exemplary contributions to family history studies'. I've been working in genetic genealogy for over 25 years so this is a lovely honour. 😊
Congratulations to Professor Turi King on being awarded the Julian Bickersteth Memorial Medal. From leading the DNA analysis that identified Richard III to pioneering genetic genealogy her work is truly ground breaking.
“Family history and genetic genealogy have always been central to my work.”
