GENIA TECHNOLOGIES

As the genomics community pushes toward the $1,000 genome, Genia is looking beyond, to the $100 genome, bringing the benefits of genome sequencing out of the lab and into the everyday world. Genia's technology is based on Biological Nanopores: Structure-Based Sequencing of Single DNA Molecules. We aim to reduce the price of sequencing and increase speed, accuracy, and sensitivity by moving away from amplification, complicated fluidics, and optical detection. Genia Technologies, Inc. is a private company located in Mountain View, CA. Genia was founded in March, 2009. The company recently closed its Series A round with a publicly held global biotech company.
