Central to Genetic Technologies’ product portfolio is TruRisk®, a clinically validated breast cancer risk test that combines multiple genetic variants with traditional risk factors to refine risk estimations. The company also offers personal genetic assessment panels covering diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis and type 2 diabetes. These products are designed to integrate with electronic health records and support precision prevention strategies by identifying high-risk individuals for early intervention and tailored screening protocols.
Genetic Technologies serves a global market, with commercial operations in the United States, Europe, Australia and parts of Asia. The company collaborates with academic institutions, health systems and specialty clinics to advance research on polygenic risk models and expand the adoption of genomics-based preventive care. Through strategic partnerships and licensing agreements, Genetic Technologies aims to embed its risk scoring solutions into wellness programs and payer-driven value-based care initiatives.
Founded in 1994 and headquartered in Melbourne, Australia, Genetic Technologies has evolved from a pioneer in single-gene testing to a leader in polygenic risk assessment. The company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange before completing a U.S. listing on the NASDAQ to support its international growth. The senior management team is led by Chief Executive Officer Bill Faraone and supported by a board of directors with extensive experience in biotechnology, diagnostics and corporate governance.
