Who We Are
AGTC Genomics is dedicated to innovation, quality, rigor and transparency, providing outstanding solutions and support for human genome biomarker discovery.
ABOUT
AGTC Genomics is a leading genomic center in the field of next-generation sequencing (NGS). With years of research and development experience, our seasoned scientists have established proprietary pipeline and platform to offer accurate and high-throughput sequencing services to meet every unique requirement of our clients.
Equipped with the latest world-leading technology platforms and professional scientific staff, AGTC Genomics is dedicated to assisting our clients while accelerating the precision medicine research and cancer diagnostics. NGS is a critical tool as it provides individual patients the genomic information, which could be used to personalize therapy. AGTC Genomics integrates advanced technologies in NGS, microarray and big data analytics platforms to offer the most in-depth genomics data analysis. These tests are useful in finding genetic variants which assist in understanding, diagnosing and treating human disease. Our goal is to help solve the mysteries of how diseases are induced by genetics and epigenetics, and facilitate the advancement of precision medicine.
Our MISSIONS
Driving Innovation
As a start-up, we aspire to transform human health. Our products and services will enable consumers, researchers and clinicians to explore DNA on an entirely new scale, helping them to make informed decisions.
Making a Difference Now
We are a company at the intersection of biology and technology. At the most fundamental level, we enable our customers to read and understand genetic variations. We strive to make our solutions increasingly simple, more accessible, and always reliable.
Empowering a Healthy Future
We have the ability to sequence at an unprecedented scale. Collectively, this will give us a much deeper understanding of genetics than ever before. We will begin to truly unlock the power of the genome. These advances will trigger a fundamental shift in healthcare and beyond. Medicine will continue to become more preventive and more precise. We will be healthier, live longer.
Finding Answers
While the rate of progress is accelerating exponentially, we are only beginning to understand the clinical significance of the genome. Together with our partners, push the boundaries of our imagination to achieve precision health.
