December 2020—Fabric Genomics launched Fabric GEM, a novel algorithm that identifies the likely genetic cause of rare diseases using next-generation sequencing.

Fabric GEM employs advanced AI and leverages genomic, phenotypic, and clinical data to identify a short list of causal candidates without losing sensitivity. While most interpretation platforms require a review of 20 to 50 candidates to find the causal variant, Fabric GEM technology, the company says, prioritizes variants, reducing the typical number of candidates for review to fewer than five.
