FOUNDED IN 1996 OUR RESEARCHPUBLICATIONS LATEST NEWS: Scientists at deCODE Genetics demonstrate for the first time how long-read DNA sequencing can be applied at population scale to unravel large structural variants that associate with human disease and other traits. UNIQUE EXPERTISE Headquartered in Reykjavik, Iceland, deCODE is a global leader in analyzing and understanding the human genome. Using our unique expertise and population resources, deCODE has discovered key genetic risk factors for dozens of common diseases ranging from cardiovascular disease to cancer. UNIQUE CAPABILITIES We operate the most productive human gene discovery engine in the world, employing our discoveries to identify genetic variations associated with human disease. UNRIVALED CAPABILITIES OUR PUBLICATIONS We regularly publish our discoveries in major, peer-reviewed journals, enabling others to further validate and expand upon our findings. SELECTED PUBLICATIONS NEWS New study on inheritance and fetal growth by umsjon | Jul 19, 2021 | NEWS Scientists from deCODE genetics have mapped 243 sequence variants affecting fetal growth, separating maternal genome and fetal genome. It sheds light on the relationships between hypertension, diabetes and fetal growth New biomarker for osteoarthritis by umsjon | Jun 22, 2021 | NEWS Scientists at deCODE genetics have found a new biomarker for osteoarthritis, that outperforms previously reported biomarkers and is an independent predictor of disease. « Older Entries Award by the American Society of Human Genetics At its Annual meeting in October 2017 in Orlando, the American Society of Human Genetics (ASHG), presented Dr. Kári Stefánsson, founder and CEO of deCODE genetics, with the William Allan Award. The award, the top prize given by the society, recognizes a scientist for substantial and far-reaching scientific contributions to human genetics. The ASHG has distributed video footage from the award ceremony. The introduction is given by Professor Mark Daly of Harvard University.
