One of our most important releases: our predictor for depression is now available.

Depression is one of the conditions families ask us about most, and is one of the hardest to predict. It took us a long time to get this right.

If you're interested, get in touch.

Every parent wants a happy child. So we built MDD-PGT, the first genetic predictor of depression for embryo screening.

Kids with a lower MDD-PGT tend to sleep better, fight less and enjoy jokes more. With 10 embryos, picking the lowest-risk one cuts depression risk by over 40%.

The mutations we identify in people have mostly never been observed before, yet with the help of in-silico computational metrics like Google Alphafold, we are still able to classify their functional impact.

Today we launch NeuroRisk, the first embryo test for autism and schizophrenia that looks for mutations in evolutionarily important genes.

These mutations are individually rare but over 10% of people carry at least one mutation in this class.

Today the first paper I worked on after joining @herasight was published! We analyze over 500k IVF cycles to predict distributions of outcomes at every stage of IVF.

Along with the paper is the tool on our website which can be freely used by patients and physicians.
