Abomics provides solutions to help organizations tackle the challenges of applied genomics. With Abomics GeneRx pharmacogenetic database, Abomics PGx Interpretation Service and Abomics GeneAccount cloud service we are able to offer easily understandable pharmacogenetics services for both physicians and customers on a global scale.

Abomics was founded in 2013 in Turku, Finland by two medical doctors Jari Forsström and Klaus Elenius. The idea for the company was born in 2010 when the two tennis buddies were discussing the future of health care. There was already strong evidence on the merits of utilizing genetic testing in patient care, but practical applications and decision support tools were few and far between. Jari and Klaus had a shared vision that genomics could be used to tailor medical treatments according to the patient’s personal attributes. Personalized health would become a reality and standardized health care guidelines would eventually become a thing of the past. The fundamental idea behind Abomics is to translate evidence-based research knowledge into clear recommendations that both the treating physician and the patient will understand and benefit from.

Abomics Oy is one of Europe's leading pharmacogenetics company. Its databases are widely used in European drug information systems. In Finland, the database solution offered by Abomics is integrated with Duodecim's drug database.
