Free tools. Clear next steps.

A starting point for your genetics question

For individuals and families, students, clinicians and researchers. Start with a task, follow the evidence, and keep track of what still needs an expert answer.

New to medical genetics?

Build the foundations before tackling a report or research paper. These reading routes connect concepts to the tools above; each article displays its own review status.

1st visit: understand the language

Start with inheritance, penetrance and what a test can establish.

Explore inheritance →
Next: understand the evidence

Learn how gene–disease validity differs from a particular variant’s classification.

Use the variant assistant →
Then: read the original research

Turn a broad topic into a searchable question and a structured reading plan.

Build a research search →

Have a project or specialist question?

Enquire about research support, variant review or a genetics consultation. We will need to confirm the appropriate professional, scope and availability before any service is agreed. This form is for an initial enquiry, not for uploading medical records.

What these tools do

Can this website tell me whether I have a genetic disease?

No. The tools help you find information and prepare questions. They do not examine a patient, verify a laboratory result or provide a diagnosis. For a personal result, use the care finder to locate a suitable genetics professional.

Are the doctor and clinic listings maintained here?

The care finder connects to established directories. Contact details, licensure, referral rules and availability must be checked with the provider. We do not rank individual clinicians or sell placement in these directory results.

Will my searches be saved?

These tools do not save what you type or upload reports. Search text is sent to a named external provider only when you choose its search link. General website browsing is subject to our privacy policy. Do not enter identifying or confidential information.

Independent educational navigation. Sources and external directories maintain their own content; inclusion is not an endorsement. Read our editorial standards or report a broken link.
