The science that has led to the commemoration of National DNA Day is the science that connects us to our ancestors. This day contributes to our sense of belonging by motivating us to discover more about who we are and where we came from.

There's a lot to learn about the structure and function of genomes, from genetic history to gene editing. On National DNA Day, the public is encouraged to learn as much as they can about their genetic composition and the molecular biology of all living things.
