How yours is made
Examined by a scientist, result by result.
Software processes your DNA data and calculates the initial results. A scientist reviews the evidence, checks relevant findings and considers your health information. Your report explains the conclusions and their limits.

What a scientist catches
What the review checks.
Findings that conflict
One variant pulls one way, another pulls back. A template lists each in isolation. A scientist reconciles them into one honest picture of where you actually stand.
Risk scores that do not transfer
Most polygenic scores (thousands of small genetic effects added into one number) were built on people of European ancestry and overstate or understate risk for everyone else. A scientist says so and tempers the score, instead of printing a number that looks more certain than it is.
Context only judgement can weigh
Your bloodwork, your history, the questions you asked, what is worth acting on now and what can wait. A template cannot weigh any of this. A scientist weighs it all together, then tells you what to do first.
What is left out
Where the evidence is still thin, a scientist says so and leaves the finding for later. You get a short list you can act on this month, rather than a long one padded to look complete.
Scientific responsibility
One named scientist, who signs it.
Adriano De Marino currently reviews and signs each Helixir analysis. The review considers your DNA results, health information and questions. Your report explains relevant findings, limitations and follow-up to discuss with your physician.
This is informational and educational, not clinical. Anything of clinical consequence is flagged plainly for you to bring to your own physician.
A private consultation
Examined by a scientist, written for you.
Tell us what you want to understand. A precision medicine analyst examines your DNA and replies with what yours will cover. The price is fixed: $850 for a DNA array, $2,950 for whole-genome sequencing, everything included.
