Powering the future of genomic research

Our research services are powered by revolutionary technology and backed by a team of world-class experts in medical, genomic science, computer science, and bioinformatics. We offer research use and clinical use (CLIA-certified, CAP-accredited) whole genome sequencing and analytics services in 2 weeks.

CLIA certified, CAP accredited

Our San Diego lab is CLIA-certified and CAP-accredited, serving both clinical and research demand. Our CLIA-validated tests are eligible for FDA submission for Phase II & III clinical trials.

Latest sequencing technology

Get access to the latest Illumina and Ultima sequencers for high-throughput data generation (including NovaseqTM X+, UG 100TM) and somatic and germline whole genome sequencing analysis through our proprietary pipeline.

World-class bioinformatics

Our proprietary, automated bioinformatics pipelines, which were developed with 13,000+ cancer and rare disease WGS cases, interpret the WGS data. 15 expert genomic scientists (MD/PhDs in genomic science, computer science and bioinformatics) curate the insights additionally.

Customized support

Get customized support for what you need. We could provide sequence only, analytics/curation only or full services with either standardized or customized reports. In addition, our experts can offer advisory services upon your requests.
