Full-scale operation is scheduled to commence in July 2019.
ACT Genomics will continue to provide medical informatics solution through its AI-powered bioinformatics pipelines to ACTmed, which enable the joint venture to provide medical interpretation that is created based on clinical databases of genetic information specifically for Asian populations as well as other clinical information curated from available database.
In addition to the NGS-lab launched in Japan, ACT Genomics expects to open another new lab in Hong Kong, S.A.R., China in June 2019, to continue the expansion and focus on Asia market.
