Company mission
Transforming health and lives with the power of genomic prevention.
Our take
According to Genomics, genetics is the best predictor of an individual's risk for various diseases. Most of the diseases people experience are preventable if they are identified early. Genomics is a healthcare company that uses large-scale genetic information to estimate patients' risk of developing certain diseases.
This innovative approach to healthcare, called genomic prevention, allows patients to make lifestyle changes and prevent diseases that would otherwise manifest. Not only will this help people live longer, healthier lives but also save NHS resources. Currently being tested with the NHS, the cutting edge technology is leading the way worldwide.
Backers include US life science investment firms F-Prime Capital and Foresite Capital. The funding raised will be used towards Genomics expansion globally as it expands its operations to help treat a much wider range of patients.
