About Omnigen
Omnigen is a team of ambitious scientists who all have a background in genetics and/or bio-informatics. Omnigen tries to find the answers to medical, genetic and biological questions from different fields with the help of the latest scientific and technical findings.
Vision
The development and results of biological researches have accelerated the past few decades. Omnigen has the vision to bring these developments and results of scientific research closer to society and apply this to services and products that will benefit citizens, consumers, and patients.
- The positive influence on society through technical developments.
- The use of biological science in a socially relevant manner.
- To accelerate the results of technical innovations like big data, personalized medicine, bioinformatics, and biological/scientific research with our own development.
- To develop clinical diagnostics to improve the treatments and accelerate the development of medication.
Mission
The mission of Omnigen is to develop the treatment methods of tomorrow. For example, to make the development of new medications cheaper and more efficient by:
- Using biological research in an innovative manner
- Specializing in big-data solutions
- Researching on a scientific level
- Having a passion for everything that has to do with biological research
- Having a social responsibility and a broad social goal.
- Developing clinical diagnostics and diagnostical systems to produce (personalized) medicines
About Omnigen
Omnigen is aiming to use biological knowledge and research in a positive and useful way for society. We do this by, for example, bring the results of scientific research closer to the broad public. We also develop methods to make the treatment of illnesses better and more efficient and we do research to accelerate and professionalize the development of partners.
