Today, we're excited to announce our partnership with The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center! Taking place over a four-year period, the Ohio State Genomic Health program will enroll 100,000 participants to screen for hereditary health risks seen in genetic diseases such as breast, ovarian, and colorectal cancers, in addition to genetic variants for high cholesterol. James Lu, M.D. Ph.D, CEO and co-founder of Helix: “Partnering with the Ohio State University, one of the nation’s top-ranked academic medical centers, will provide vital information about whether patients have an increased risk of disease. Our other programs have found that 1 in 75 participants received a positive result for one of these serious, actionable genetic conditions. We are proud to partner with Ohio State to positively impact public health across the state and enable individuals to take greater control of their health.” Read more about the largest precision health initiative in Ohio: https://bit.ly/3WjS6Ur
