Comprehensive Genetic
Testing & Consulation

Despite costly and extensive testing, nearly 50% of patients with an underlying genetic disease never receive a molecular diagnosis. Even with breakthroughs that tailor each patient's treatment to their cancer's unique genetic profile, fewer than 10% of cancer patients undergo such testing and therefore do not have access to these new treatments.

We created Praxis Genomics to overcome these limitations.

Praxis Genomics is the only provider in the world to combine Bionano Optical Genome Mapping technology with Whole Genome and Transcriptome Sequencing. This investigates the genome at the sequence, structure, and function levels simultaneously and grants patients access to the most comprehensive genetic testing clinically available to date.

With this unique approach, Praxis Genomics provides unprecedented depth of cancer profiling and achieves an unsurpassed diagnosis rate for otherwise unsolved genetic disorders.

Your data is safe with us. Praxis Genomics believes in patient confidentiality and does not share or sell patient data to third parties.

For decades, our founders have been pioneers in the development of modern genome analysis techniques and informatics tools for clinical applications. They have been among the first in the country to introduce clinical microarray testing, to offer combined clinical DNA and RNA analysis for patients with pediatric malignancies and have been first in the world to introduce clinical grade whole-exome-based carrier testing.

Praxis Genomics LLC now builds on these accomplishments and pushes the boundaries of Molecular Medicine further to provide a genetic diagnosis for an ever-increasing percentage of patients.
