Genomics operates as a transatlantic technology-driven biotechnology firm focused on applying genomic information to health, with the goal of enabling preventative medicine and supporting drug discovery. It was founded in 2014 by four University of Oxford geneticists, including Sir Peter Donnelly and Gil McVean. The company maintains proprietary algorithms and databases that map small genome variations to thousands of biological measurements and disease outcomes, generating insights for populations and clinicians. It collaborates with leading life sciences companies such as Novo Nordisk and Vertex. Headquartered in Oxford with offices in Cambridge and London, UK, and North Carolina, US, along with labs in Framingham, US, it brings together a multidisciplinary team to advance genomic prevention and personalized risk estimation for common diseases and cancers, enabling early interventions and tailored screening.
