#cm explainer

MyHeritage DNA has unveiled cM Explainer™.“ This latest new feature “estimates familial relationships between DNA Matches,” calculates the probabilities associated with each potential relationship, and “determines the most recent common ancestor.” MyHeritage relies on the amount of shared DNA and the ages of one’s matches to refine predictions, just as 23andMe has done for years. Users can view an illustration of the relationship path for each of their genetic relatives. cM Explainer™ is now a free feature available to anyone with MyHeritage DNA results. Non-MyHeritage customers have the option to use cM Explainer™ as a free standalone tool at myheritage.com/cm.
