Genetiks and Veritas announce a collaboration to completes the Turkish laboratory's preventive and perinatal portfolio.
The new collaboration is in line with the commitment of both institutions to bring genomic medicine closer to the general population.
MADRID, May 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Genetiks, a pioneering laboratory in Turkey in the field of genetics, and Veritas, a letsgetchecked group company focused on genome and exome sequencing and clinical interpretation, enter into a collaboration agreement to expand the Turkish laboratory's preventive and perinatal medicine portfolio.
The agreement is focused on two main areas, perinatal medicine and preventive medicine. Regarding the first one, Genetiks will incorporate the Pregnancy Loss test -for genomic analysis in spontaneous miscarriage- and myNewborn, a pioneering neonatal genomic screening for the detection of 390 diseases of genetic origin that can affect the baby in early childhood. In the field of preventive medicine, Genetiks will begin to offer myGenome (the most complete preventive genetic service, based on complete genome sequencing and its clinical interpretation) and myHealthScore, a polygenic risk test focused on the risk of oncological, cardiovascular or metabolic pathology.
