Independent scientific review

Got a genetic test result you don't understand?

Send us your genetic test report. Our scientific team independently reviews it and provides a clear, personalized written explanation in plain language, covering the basic concepts and purpose of the test, the reported findings, their significance and limitations, and what they may mean in relation to the patient’s condition. In selected cases involving complex or inconclusive findings, a separate in-depth scientific reanalysis may subsequently be recommended.

What you receive

A report you can actually read

A clear, personalized explanation of the key genetic concepts and reported results, written in plain language for patients and families.

  • Your genetic test explained

    We explain the key genetic concepts needed to understand the test and the results reported by the laboratory.

  • What your results mean

    We explain what was found, what the report can and cannot conclude, and what the results may mean in relation to the patient’s medical condition.

  • The limitations of the test

    We clarify the limitations of the test and why some medical or genetic questions may remain unanswered.

  • Whether further analysis may help

    In selected cases, we indicate whether complex or inconclusive findings may benefit from a separate, in-depth scientific reanalysis.

A separate in-depth scientific reanalysis may be recommended in selected cases for an additional $249. An optional 20-minute consultation with the Scientific Director is also available for $69.

Is this for you?

Who this scientific review is for

A good fit if

  • You have a genetic test result that you do not fully understand.
  • Your report came back inconclusive, or with a Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS).
  • You want an independent scientific reading of a report you already have.
  • You or your child are being studied for a rare or still undiagnosed condition.
  • You want to understand your result before your next appointment with your healthcare team.

Not the right fit if

  • You do not have a genetic test report yet. We review results that already exist; we do not order or run tests.
  • You are looking for clinical decisions or care recommendations. Those stay with your treating healthcare professionals, and our review supports that conversation.
