The Mission: Why We Exist

Genomics is a science-led transatlantic TechBio combining large-scale genetic and health data with proprietary analytics to accelerate drug discovery and advance predictive, preventative healthcare. We are united by a single vision to help people live longer healthier lives, using the power of genomics.

Genomics aims to help people live longer, healthier lives in two ways: super-charging drug discovery and development for novel treatments with our AI-enabled advanced genetic analytics platform, and by helping people understand their personal risk of common chronic diseases through polygenic risk scores - giving doctors and health systems the chance to get the right people into the right prevention, screening and treatment programmes at the right time.

A Day in the Life

As a Scientist, you'll drive innovation and collaboration, devising groundbreaking scientific approaches that help to shape team direction. You’ll communicate your discoveries effectively, and be a spearhead in leading transformative projects across the team.

You’ll forge cutting-edge methods to craft Polygenic Risk Scores by harnessing genomic, real-world and clinical data. Using a strategic approach, you will utilise advanced statistical techniques to prioritise therapeutics targets to unveil new treatment possibilities.

Success here demands a robust grasp of statistical human genetics applied inventively. You'll excel in unraveling complex genomic data and possess a knack for uncovering key insights, whilst working collectively with your highly skilled team.

Who You Are
