CRI Genetics is built on a culture that values employee development, personal growth, and excellence.’’
CRI Genetics aims to provide customers with a ‘biogeographical ancestry’, a description of where their genes fit into the overall story of the species.’’
A CRI Geneticist explains that we all have two copies of every gene, one inherited from each parent. Still, some genes are more dominant than others, which determines the physical characteristics you end up with.’’
We talked with experts to discuss some common myths...such as Catherine Waalkes, geneticist and development scientist at CRI Genetics.’’
Take advantage of working with a DNA Test Company that is...
100% Privately Owned, leverages Genetic Experts with Case Studies, and truly reveals your Genetic Ancestral History!
CRI Genetics has a unique approach to genealogical testing. We are an advanced team led by a professional molecular geneticist who has been studying DNA for over 35 years with the help of Nobel Prize winning scientists. At CRI Genetics, we have the education, tools, and skills to provide you the most accurate estimation of your BioGeographical Ancestry.
We combine Genetics with Anthropology to trace the migrations of the human race. When we test your DNA against the samples from around the globe, we can figure out where you fit in the rich history of our species.
Our tests examine 527,414 specific markers across your entire genome. These markers are hand-picked based on the latest breakthroughs and advancements in genetic science. These markers are specially chosen for their relevance to tracing ancestry, so that we can provide you with the most statistically likely estimation of your heritage.
It’s a refreshingly simple 3 step process:
At CRI Genetics, we value your time and trust in our services. The lab process of examining DNA can be very time-consuming, especially if there are several customer samples to process at once. With this in mind, we're proud to offer a unique "8-Week Efficiency Guarantee" designed to provide you with your genetic reports promptly.
Here's what it means for you:
Our "Efficiency Guarantee" is our commitment to you for timely, reliable genetic insights.
On top of the "Efficiency Guarantee" outlined in the question above, here are the scenarios in which your purchase may be eligible for a refund:

Women can get the same type of BioGeographical Ancestry Report that men can get. This report is based on an Autosomal DNA Test. Autosomal DNA Tests have no gender restrictions because they test specific markers across your entire genome. The only DNA tests that are restricted by gender are Y-DNA Tests, which trace direct paternal lineage. Women do not have a Y-Chromosome, so they cannot take a Y-DNA Test.
Unfortunately, it’s impossible to provide a 100% correct evaluation of your ancestry without having DNA samples from every ancestor going back 200,000 years.
However, we are able to provide a research-grade estimation of your biogeographical ancestry. Our CLIA-validated testing methods ensure that we test your DNA to the highest standards available, and we only deliver reports with a high confidence level.
We provide dual ancestry reports, (Recent Ancestry reflects the most recent 5-7 generations, while Ancient Ancestry reaches as far back as 1,000 years), and an Ancestry Timeline that reveals up to 50 generations back.
Your “BioGeographical Ancestry” is a description of your place in the evolutionary and geographical history of our species. It’s simply a breakdown of where your genes come from, according to the results of your DNA tests.
Some might define it as “race” or “ethnicity,” but we don’t feel that these terms adequately communicate the complexity of the science and history behind the information that we give you.
The simple answer to this is no. Our tests will identify your most statistically likely BioGeographical Ancestry, but the results are not intended to provide legal proof that you belong to a specific race. Many of the reasons why are detailed in the answers to previous questions. Race is a complex thing to define when ancestral genes are not passed down in a consistent, predictable manner.
Many users are attempting to verify Native American ancestry. If that’s the case for you, check with the rules of the specific tribe you think you might belong to. Each tribal government has its own set of laws as to how to identify indigenous citizenship. For example, many tribes will recognize your citizenship ONLY if your indigenous heritage is through your mother. In this example, even if your father is 100% Native American, you won’t qualify for tribal citizenship if your mother has no indigenous ancestry. Again, laws vary from tribe to tribe, so go by their guidelines if you’re trying to verify Native American ancestry.
Also keep in mind that the complex anthropological history of human migration can allow for someone of European descent, whose family has been in Europe for centuries and only intermingled with other Europeans, to have some ancestry from the other haplogroups around the globe. Such a person could have up to 10% Native American BioGeographical Ancestry, despite having a family history of never setting foot in the Americas.
