Insights on genetics, polygenic risk scores, and genomic health.
You just got your Genomisaur health report. It's a lot — charts, percentiles, risk scores. Here's what each section is showing you. The Risk Score Card Each condition in your report gets its own...
You open your Genomisaur report and see a score in the 90th percentile for some condition. Your first instinct might be to panic. Before you do, it's worth understanding what "high risk" means in the...
When you read your Genomisaur health report, your percentile rankings are calculated against a reference population. Which population, and why does it matter? Ancestry is one of the bigger factors in...
One of the more unusual things in a Genomisaur family report is offspring simulation. Instead of giving you a single guess about what traits your children might have, we simulate 100 possible...
Carrier screening is one of the most actionable parts of a Genomisaur family report. Polygenic risk scores deal in probabilities and predispositions; carrier screening identifies specific genetic...
One of the more enjoyable parts of a Genomisaur report — individual or family — is the trait predictions. Eye color, hair color, height, BMI tendency, lactose tolerance, caffeine metabolism, and so...
When you get your Genomisaur report, each condition comes with a polygenic risk score and a percentile ranking. What actually goes into calculating that number? Here's how we turn raw genetic data...
The Genomisaur family report is different from a standard health report. Instead of analyzing one person's DNA, it takes genetic data from both parents and models what their future children might...
