The popularity of personal DNA testing and genome sequencing has really increased in recent years. As someone with MS, have you ever thought about getting it done yourself?

Patrick Short is the co-founder and CEO of Sano Genetics, a platform that helps patients match with precision medicine research and learn more through personalised reports, and other content including patient stories. The platform is patient-centric and private-by design, and through data-driven matchmaking and home genomic testing, has enabled precision medicine studies in common and rare diseases, including autoimmune and neurology (MS in particular) as an area of focus.

Sano Genetics empowers people to access research, information, and their DNA through their platform. It works as a guide for people who want to take part in research and inform them of different types of research. Participants can also gain access to their DNA through some of Sano's research projects.
