Genetic counseling through the Partner Marketplace
Sequencing offers access to genetic counseling through an app in the Partner Marketplace. The app connects you with a genetic counselor who can discuss your DNA results with you. Because of Sequencing's Universal Data Compatibility, it works with genetic data from a wide range of sources, including 23andMe, AncestryDNA, FamilyTreeDNA, MyHeritage, Living DNA, exome sequencing, and whole genome sequencing.
How it works
The process is straightforward:
- Upload your DNA data through the Upload Center.
- Open the genetic counseling app in the Partner Marketplace and select the DNA data file you want reviewed.
- If you have used other Partner Marketplace apps, you can choose to share those results with the counselor as well, so your questions can be answered in context.
- Your data is processed, and you are connected with a licensed genetic counselor to discuss your results privately and securely.
This gives you a way to ask questions about your genetic data and your app results directly with a professional, from home or on the go.
