Nucleus Genomics

After four and a half years of building, I’m beyond excited to announce today family planning via genetic matching on Nucleus Genomics. Imagine knowing nearly every possible genetic outcome for you and your partner’s future children, starting with your future children’s risk of inheriting over 900 diseases. In the future, all couples everywhere will check their genetic compatibility before having children. In doing so, couples can choose not to pass down hereditary disease to their kids. This is what modern genomic science is about — building tools that lets anyone, anywhere be healthy and have healthy children. What better way to announce genetic matching than syncing with Molly O'Shea? Watch to find out if we’re compatible 😉

The American Heart Association has just released new recommendations on direct-to-consumer genetic testing for cardiovascular disease, and they align well with how I see the field evolving. One of the key takeaways is a growing openness to different sources of genetic data—under proper responsibility, of course! No one wants inaccurate results. But as the landscape of genetic testing expands, it seems increasingly clear that both hospital-initiated and commercial DNA testing approaches will play a role in clinical care. There are still challenges to solve, including ensuring test accuracy, responsible interpretation, and effective clinical integration. But when high-quality data exists, shouldn’t we be finding ways to use it? The conversation around this is evolving, and I’m glad to see thoughtful frameworks emerging for how to navigate it. Read the full AHA statement here: https://lnkd.in/d7kwnZXf Would love to hear thoughts from others working in this space—how do you see commercial genetic testing fitting into clinical care?

We believe genetics is the future of health, and if new societies are to thrive, genetic health must be at their foundation. We visited Balaji Srinivasan at Network School to provide whole genome sequencing to the builders architecting tomorrow. Our goal is to ensure the health we build today endures for generations to come.

Sharing genetic results with your doctor shouldn't be complicated. We've updated our physician reports to help you clearly discuss what matters most to your health: - Simple overview that allows you to quickly understand your results - A summary of the conditions you’re at elevated genetic risk for - Your Nucleus Family results

A new era in precision health arrives this week. We're launching updates that unlock unprecedented clarity into your DNA, empowering you to make health decisions that shape generations. Nucleus Genomics is about to change what's possible.

With NIH research budgets tightening, industry has a responsibility to step up and keep innovation alive in genetics and precision medicine. We've been on the lookout for a Statistical Geneticist, and it's a very specific skill set—blending GWAS, PRS modeling, rare variant analysis, and computational genetics. It's a niche role, but an important one. If this sounds like you (or someone in your network), drop me a message or check out the details here: https://lnkd.in/d_3S4TF4 Let's ensure high-quality research keeps coming!

Yesterday, we launched Nucleus Family ⎯ a new kind of genetic test designed to help you have healthy kids Screen for + 900 diseases and conditions that you may pass on to your children, before you have them. This is a step into the future, where couples can have clarity like never before. I'm really proud of the work done by Lasse Folkersen, D. Barry Starr and all of the Nucleus Genomics team on this. You can check out the landing page that I worked on with Tim Guiteras below ↓ I'll also link a substack post in the comments that dives into our design approach on this https://lnkd.in/eiRZeJn6

Have kids with clarity. Nucleus Family screens for 900+ genetic conditions - 750 more than standard tests - so you and your partner can plan with confidence. No doctor visits. No waiting rooms. Just answers. Protect your future family with a single swab. The future of generational health starts now.

Every doctor should look for these 81 genes in their patients. Most don't. For over a decade, the American College of Medical Genetics has curated a growing list of genes linked to serious diseases where early detection can change lives. But roughly 90% of people at risk for even the most common of these don't know it. Why? Because DNA isn't part of today's standard of care. We want to change that. Our new analyses of each of these genes gives you the knowledge you need to protect your health today - and in the future.

Not all genetic tests show you what’s inside - ours does. We built a tool that makes it easier than ever to explore what Nucleus offers. 🔍 Search thousands of genetic markers in seconds. ✅ Instantly check if we cover a condition. 🧬 See exactly what’s inside before you even test.
