World's First Whole Genome Embryo Report with 99% DNA Coverage Revolutionizes Baby Health

Jul 22, 2024, 05:34 PM

The world’s first whole genome embryo report is now available, providing 100 times more data on embryos compared to existing screening options. This advancement is expected to make embryo screening the default method for having babies in the near future. The new report offers 99% DNA coverage of the embryo, a significant improvement over the less than 1% coverage provided by current methods. Noor Siddiqui, who is behind this innovation, aims to help people have healthier babies by offering more comprehensive genetic information. The initiative is part of a broader plan to make embryo reports more affordable and convenient, ultimately giving future generations a better chance at a healthy life.
