Our Research Focus
HumanSeq is leading research to create a more inclusive genomic dataset and advance personalised medicine.
We are the first UK-based organisation dedicated to building a more complete Human Genome Reference Sequence, ensuring genomic insights benefit everyone.
Our work also focuses on early detection and liquid biopsy testing, developing more affordable and accessible testing strategies to help more people.
Additionally, we are advancing a biomarker-led drug development pipeline, leveraging genetic insights to create more targeted therapies. Biomarker-driven drug development is significantly more successful, increasing the likelihood of clinical trial success and delivering more effective treatments with fewer side effects.
Our Strategy
Our mission is to provide high-quality DNA testing that makes a real difference—right now.
In the UK, 1 in 2 people will face a cancer diagnosis in their lifetime (NHS), and 1 in 17 has a rare genetic disorder (GOV.UK).
While DNA sequencing has become more affordable, most direct-to-consumer testing services overcharge while analysing just 0.01% of your genome.
By sequencing your DNA with HumanSeq, you’re not only improving your own risk factor predictions—you’re also contributing to our mission of ending genomic inequality and advancing research for everyone.
