Develops and markets proprietary, low cost, high value DNA diagnostic testsfor underserved medical conditions in newborns, children, and adolescents. This focus grew out of the recognition that most genetic tests require blood samples, have longer turn-around times, and are expensive. The Company's principle strategy is to internally develop tests using cheek swabs for sample collection and a PCR based testing platform to bring to market accurate, convenient and cost effective DNA screening tests for adolescents focused in three key areas of developmental disorders:
Physical Development:
