STOREGENE
For Individuals
Take control of
your health
Whole genome analysis offers personalised insights into your genetic health, disease risk, and potential responses to medications. Get a deeper understanding of your genetic makeup, and feel empowered to make informed decisions with your clinician about your lifestyle, preventive measures, and healthcare choices.
Always informed by a specialist
We believe that no individual should be presented with a genetic report without being provided with clinical guidance and context. We’ve partnered with some of the leading genetic clinicians in the UK to go through your results with you. Once your analysis has been completed, we’ll share the reports with your clinician and send you a notification to schedule a consultation. After your consultation you have full access to your reports and your genomic data.
How it works
- 1
Complete our signup form to register your interest
- 2
A member of our friendly team will be in touch. We’ll ask for your consent, and request an address so that we can send you a sample collection kit
- 3
Once the kit arrives, follow the simple sample collection instructions and enter the unique ID in to our sample request form
- 4
Simply post the sample back to us using the envelope included.
- 5
We’ll take care of the rest! Once your results are ready we will provide you with clinical specialist to go through your results with you.

Benefits
Peace of mind
Whole genome sequencing offers a powerful tool for peace of mind by providing insight into your genetic predispositions to non-communicable diseases like heart disease, cancer, and stroke. Cardiovascular diseases alone account for 31% of all global deaths, many of which could be prevented through early detection and proactive measures. Similarly, about 5-10% of cancers are hereditary, meaning early identification through genetic testing can lead to more effective prevention or treatment strategies.
Medication confidence
99.7% of the population carries a variant which could lead to an adverse drug reaction and yet medications are still prescribed to individuals on a one-size-fits all basis. By sequencing your genome your clinician can inform medication choices and dosages based on your genetic profile, reducing the risk of adverse drug reactions and improving treatment efficacy.

A lifetime of insights
Once you’ve had your whole genome sequenced, you have access to this wealth of genetic information for life. This means, as the world’s understanding of genetics evolves, you won’t need to re-sequence to benefit from new discoveries. We can simply retest your existing data.
Family planning
Whole genome sequencing empowers family planning by revealing potential inherited conditions, enabling informed decisions for a healthier future. This proactive step ensures your family has the best start in life.
