Lifestyle diseases like obesity, diabetes, and hypertension can put a huge burden on the traditional healthcare infrastructure. However, many of these medical conditions (or the chances of developing them) can be tracked quite early through genomics or genetic analysis as they tend to be hereditary. Decoding an individual’s hereditary/congenital disorders also goes a long way in preventing comorbidities.

To support preventive care for genetic problems, New Delhi-based Answer Genomics was set up in 2018 and became operational in June this year. The genetic research startup uses machine learning to study the genetic codes of lifestyle diseases and other medical disorders for prediction, prognosis and cure.
