Biotech Eugenics Knowledge Test

How well do you know the science behind embryo selection and gene editing? 56 multiple-choice questions on the structure of DNA, the kinds of genetic variation, meiosis and gametes, how genetic prediction works (GWAS, heritability, polygenic scores), genotyping and sequencing, the statistics of selection, CRISPR-type editing, and the results of animal and plant breeding.

The test is meant for people who follow these topics: most questions go beyond textbook definitions, and some are hard for working geneticists. Some need a calculation: a calculator is allowed (a phone's will do), and where an item needs values from the normal distribution, they are given in it. Untimed, about 20 minutes. Afterwards you can see which ones you missed.
