About advanced health genetics
Our Mission: Making Genetic Science Actionable
Advanced Health Genetics exists because we believe everyone deserves access to the insights hidden in their DNA—not locked behind academic jargon or expensive clinical tests, but translated into clear, actionable guidance you can actually use.
We combine peer-reviewed genetic imputation technology with expert medical oversight to analyze over 83 million genetic variants from a single DNA test. The result: personalized health reports that help you understand your body at its most fundamental level.
Why We Started: A Health Crisis That Changed Everything
Our founder, Elwin Robinson, spent years struggling with chronic fatigue, brain fog, and declining health. Doctors couldn't find answers. Specialists ran tests that came back 'normal.' Alternative practitioners offered guesswork dressed as certainty.
The breakthrough came when Elwin discovered his genetic data held clues that conventional medicine had missed. A methylation deficiency. Detoxification pathway variants. Nutrient absorption issues—all written in his DNA, waiting to be decoded.
"When I finally understood my genetic blueprint, everything changed," Elwin recalls. "I could see exactly which supplements my body needed, which foods to avoid, which lifestyle factors were working against me. Within months, the fog lifted. The energy returned."
That experience sparked a mission: make this level of genetic insight accessible to everyone—not just those with access to expensive clinical geneticists or the scientific background to interpret raw research papers
How Our Technology Works
We don't guess. We don't rely on outdated databases or oversimplified interpretations. Our analysis is built on three pillars of scientific rigor:
1. Genetic Imputation Technology: Consumer DNA tests like 23andMe and AncestryDNA measure approximately 750,000 genetic markers. Our imputation technology—powered by Omics Edge's bioinformatics platform—expands this to over 83 million variants by leveraging reference panels from the 1000 Genomes Project and Haplotype Reference Consortium.
2. Bayesian Deep Learning: Our AI doesn't hallucinate. Unlike generative AI systems (like ChatGPT) that can fabricate information, we use discriminative algorithms that only identify patterns in actual genetic data. The result is 99.7% accuracy for common variants—validated against whole genome sequencing datasets.
3. Ancestry-Adjusted Polygenic Risk Scores: Generic risk scores often fail for non-European populations because they were trained on limited datasets. Our algorithms adjust for your specific genetic ancestry, ensuring accurate insights regardless of your background.
Expert Oversight for Every Report
We don't just rely on algorithms. Our reports are developed under medical oversight and powered by one of the world's leading genetics technology teams.

The 'Glass Box' Approach
In an industry often criticized for 'black box' algorithms and vague claims, we've chosen radical transparency:
Published Methodology: We document exactly how our imputation and analysis works, citing the academic research it's based on. [Link to /how-it-works]
Accuracy Metrics: We publish our validation results—99.7% accuracy for common variants, verified against whole genome sequencing benchmarks.
Confidence Scoring: Every insight in your report includes a confidence score, so you know which findings are highly certain and which are probabilistic.
Regular Updates: As new research emerges, we update our reports—and notify you when your insights have changed.
Clear Limitations: We're honest about what genetic testing can and can't tell you. We're not diagnostic. We don't replace your doctor. We provide insights that help you ask better questions.
Your Genetic Data, Protected
We take genetic privacy seriously. Your data is:
-
Encrypted with AES-256, the same standard used by banks and governments
-
Stored separately from your personal information - your genetics are anonymized
-
Never sold to third parties, pharmaceutical companies, or insurance providers
-
Deletable at any time—you can request complete removal of your data
We maintain full GDPR and HIPAA compliance, with regular third-party security audits.
