Are you a bioinformatician with experience in setting up and maintaining state-of-the-art computational workflows for genome sequencing?
About Engenome
The impact of genomics on the future of medicine and healthcare will be massive, and our mission is to enhance the diagnosis and treatment of genetic diseases through the use of genomic information.
Since 2016, we have leveraged artificial intelligence (ML & GenAI) and bioinformatics to guide our development. We have brought to market eVai and VarChat, two best-in-class solutions for identifying causative variants of genetic diseases and making the best therapeutic decisions for patients.
