Customized SNP Testing

[girlperson1]

FTDNA should offer the ability to have customized SNP testing. If, say for example, I wanted to test rs7412 or rs429358 (10X increase of Alzheimer's Disease), after signing the appropriate stack of release forms, they could run the test and post the results to my personal page.

There may be a reason for FTDNA not to do this. See this recent article:

Stupid FDA. They should keep their noses out of my genome.
