SNPedia is a wiki investigating human genetics. We share information about the effects of variations in DNA, citing peer-reviewed scientific publications. It is used by Promethease (promethease.com) to create a personal report linking your DNA variations to the information published about them. https://snpedia.com/ Promethease is a literature retrieval system that builds a personal DNA report based on connecting a file of DNA genotypes to the scientific findings cited in SNPedia.
Livewello’s aim is to empower people to have control over their health. We believe that if people had the tools to be organized and understand their health issues, they would get better. Today, vast online research data and personal genomics, have for the first time in history, given people unprecenedented access to health knowledge. We built our software to harness these resources. https://livewello.com/
