KNOWLEDGE THROUGH GENETICS |
|
|
For medical doctors and health companies, HeartGenetics is developing technologies for cardiovascular genetic testing and clinical reporting. It is dedicated to improve people’s health, one at a time. |
HeartGenetics was founded in 2013 (IST spin-off) after 7 years of research between multidisciplinary teams including molecular and computational biologists, geneticists and cardiologists from referenced Portuguese Hospitals.
HeartGenetics has developed a disruptive methodology that includes (i) a DNA MICROCHIP array platform and (ii) efficient and scalable algorithms for data processing and clinical reporting.
This new methodology is relevant for improving cardiovascular diagnostics, genetic testing scaling up and providing cost-effective genetic tools to clinical practice.
