Comprehensive Genetic
Testing & Consulation

Despite costly and extensive testing, nearly 50% of patients never receive a molecular diagnosis. Similarly, less than 10% of cancer patients have their malignancies treated based on the specific molecular alterations of their illness.

The purpose of Praxis Genomics is to provide a molecular level diagnosis for difficult to solve inherited disorders and provide deep molecular analysis of cancers, driving a personalized therapeutic approach for people with malignancies.

We accomplish these goals by combining Bionano Optical Genome Mapping technology with Whole Genome and Transcriptome Sequencing. Praxis Genomics is the only provider offering this combination of testing services in the world and can claim an unsurpassed percentage of cases with successful molecular diagnosis.

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.
