To date, Knome has been responsible for sequencing the genome of more humans than any company in the world. We have assembled a team of leading geneticists, clinicians and bioinformaticians from the Harvard and MIT communities to work with our clients. Our service is a highly personalized and interactive process - Knome scientists and physicians work closely with each client to ensure that they learn and understand what their genomes can tell them about themselves.
