About Us
Genomenon is a genomics intelligence company in the lead position to be the first to curate the entire human genome. Our team is dedicated to improving the quality of patients’ lives by characterizing the genomic drivers of genetic disease and cancer. Genomenon's curation process emphasizes the clinical relevance of genetic findings, ensuring that curated data directly supports accurate diagnosis and effective treatment decisions.
Blending the power of AI with the precision of genomic expertise, Genomenon simplifies complex genetic data into actionable insights for patient diagnosis and precision medicine development.
Genomenon, a name signifying “born out of need” in ancient Greek, perfectly encapsulates the genesis of our journey.
In his clinical practice and genomic research, co-founder Dr. Mark Kiel was frustrated with the painfully slow and time-consuming process of manual curation. He was also well aware of the diagnostic odyssey that thousands of rare disease patients and families face as he and his twin brother had hypodontia, or missing adult teeth, in their youth. Living with a rare condition as a child focused Mark’s attention on genetics and his desire to make an impact on rare diseases.
Genomenon was founded in 2014 to address this pressing need for faster, more comprehensive variant interpretation by combining expert curation with unique machine-learning methods designed to keep up with the pace of new publications and present the most relevant information to researchers.
Today, Genomenon empowers scientists, researchers and clinicians at pharmaceutical companies, clinical labs, and universities to more thoroughly understand diseases at a molecular level.
Genomenon is headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
