About
A small practice, focused on clear explanations.
Helixir Genomics provides DNA analysis with scientific review. We explain relevant findings, their limitations and suggested follow-up. The practice is currently led by Adriano De Marino.
The scientist

Adriano De Marino, PhD.
Adriano is a precision medicine analyst with a PhD. He has spent years inside the largest commercial genomics platforms, interpreting DNA at scale. That work convinced him of a simple thing: the most useful analysis is still done one person at a time, by a scientist who knows the science.
So he reads each genome himself. He turns it into a few clear choices that add up over a lifetime, writes them in plain language, and signs his name to the result.
Discipline
Precision medicine
Method
A scientist reviews every result
Scope
One person at a time
Standards
Four rules your analysis is held to.
Evidence
Every finding is checked against ClinVar, the public database of gene–health links, and the current peer-reviewed research. One change can carry a dozen laboratory submissions that disagree with each other; we read all of them, ranked by how carefully each was reviewed, not only the alarming ones.
Restraint
When the science is uncertain, we say so plainly. We do not claim more than the data can support.
Privacy
Your data is yours. Never sold, never shared for advertising or research, never used to train models. Encrypted on our servers and while it travels.
Independence
We earn nothing from any supplement brand, lab, or drug. So the advice you get is the advice we believe, with no one paying for the answer.
Choosing your depth
For the deepest read, the whole genome.
Choose a DNA array for selected, well-studied positions or whole-genome sequencing for broader coverage, including rare variants and structural changes. Both options include scientific review. The report explains the limits of the test you choose.
One at a time
One genome, one scientist, one plan.
We take on only a few people at a time, on purpose. That keeps the work careful, the attention personal, and your analysis truly your own.
