Why Fulton Labs & Fulton Market
Situated amid Chicago’s thriving Fulton Market District, Fulton Labs is a 16‑story, 425,000‑sq‑ft life‑sciences tower engineered for next‑generation research:

GMP‑, CLIA‑, and CAP‑ready infrastructure with vibration‑isolated wet and dry labs

Redundant mechanical systems that guarantee uninterrupted sequencing and AI workloads

LEED‑certified design for lower carbon footprint and reduced operating costs

Collaboration lounges, innovation galleries, and skyline rooftop that foster partnerships across academia, venture capital, and global biotech anchors

This ecosystem positions Gene Matrix to accelerate R&D, automate its AI genomics platform, and recruit the top talent driving Chicago’s rise as a biomedical powerhouse.

Inside the New HQ
AI + Genomics Engine – Unified data lake integrates high‑throughput sequencers, robotic liquid handlers, and GPU clusters for real‑time variant interpretation.

Population‑Health Command Center – Cloud dashboards monitor anonymized genomic trends, enabling national precision‑health programs with partner ministries.

Innovation Studio – Flexible space for co‑development with health‑system CIOs, payers, and start‑ups tackling medication safety, chronic‑disease prediction, and nutrition.

Event & Training Hub – On‑site auditorium and simulation labs host CME‑accredited pharmacogenomics workshops and community STEM programs.

Introducing GeneCancer™
Building on its flagship GenePGx pharmacogenomics panel, Gene Matrix’s new GeneCancer™ test screens 108 high‑penetrance genes—including BRCA1/2, TP53, MLH1, and PALB2—covering breast, ovarian, colorectal, pancreatic, and rarer cancers. Key differentiators:

Seven‑Day Turnaround — Industry‑leading speed from sample receipt to oncologist‑ready report

AI‑Prioritized Variants — Machine‑learning triage flags category 1 & 2 variants for expedited counseling

Actionable Pathways — Matches risk profiles with NCCN‑aligned surveillance and prophylactic‑surgery options

Privacy by Design — Samples destroyed within 90 days; data never sold or used for non‑medical advertising

“Every hour counts when it comes to cancer prevention,” noted Dr. Melissa Gomez, MD, clinical pharmacologist and external advisor. “GeneCancer’s rapid, comprehensive approach empowers clinicians to shift from reactive treatment to truly proactive care.”
