Personalised Precision Medication
Helping you receive the right medication at the right dose.
About Us
Welcome to Gene S
Gene S is an Australian biotechnology company with innovative gene testing technology. Our Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) solution, featuring advanced gene testing and reporting software, empowers laboratories and doctors to deliver faster and more accurate pharmacogenomic results, optimising patient care.
Innovator of the Year Finalist
We’re thrilled to announce that Gene S was named a finalist for the 2025 Western Australian Innovator of the Year Awards — in the Wesfarmers Wellbeing Platinum Award category.
This award celebrates WA innovators who have developed outstanding products, technologies, processes, or services that advance social or medical wellbeing in the community — and we’re honoured to be recognised for our contribution to precision health care.
Our first product, RosaMind, is a breakthrough in personalised mental health care — and we’re incredibly grateful to be acknowledged alongside WA’s leading innovators in health and wellbeing.

70% of medications are ineffective or cause side effects
The Problem We Solve
70% of medications are ineffective or cause side effects This is because more than 99% of us have a change in our DNA which affects how we metabolise medications. This is called pharmacogenomics (PGx). Prescribing medicines often involves a trial-and-error approach. This places a significant burden on the healthcare system with increased healthcare costs. If PGx testing was implemented in Australia the predicted healthcare savings just from reducing adverse side effects is predicted to be more than $1billion. PGx testing provides a personalised approach to medication management. Analysing a patient’s genetic makeup can help healthcare providers identify which medications are most likely to be effective with the lowest associated adverse drug reactions.
How We Work
For Labs
For Doctors
With Gene S pharmacogenomic reporting, doctors have the opportunity to prescribe medication based on the patient’s genetic profile. The benefits of precision medicine and better patient care are in reach.

For Patients
OUR PRODUCT
Gene S has developed an innovative PGx platform technology called Rosa, named in honour of Rosalind Franklin, a British scientist who made crucial contributions to understanding the physical structure of DNA, known as the double helix. Rosa has been developed firstly for medications to treat mental health conditions in both adults and children (RosaMind). The Rosa PGx platform will then be applied to medications used in the management of pain, cardiac conditions, and anaesthesia with future application for anti-bugs, cancer and animal health.
The Test
The doctor requests pharmacogenomic testing at their local laboratory using the Gene S assay. This requires a single simple patient blood, buccal or saliva sample.
The Report
The doctor then receives a report with the patient's genetic profile. The report specifies the medication and the doses that are suitable for the patient. The right medication at the right dose every time.

The Test
When a patient needs prescribed medication a doctor requests a blood test or saliva sample to be sent to a Gene S approved laboratory. That is it, just one blood test or saliva sample

The doctor then receives a report with the patient's genetic profile. The report specifies the medication and the doses that are suitable for the patient. The right medication at the right dose every time.
