The company was founded in 2013 by Pieter van Rooyen, Ph.D., CEO, Robert McMillen, Ph.D., vice president of engineering, and Michael Ruehle, director of system architecture. Edico Genome is located in the San Diego technology incubator EvoNexus.In December 2014, Edico Genome's DRAGEN Bio-IT Processor was awarded the number one spot on The Scientist Top 10 Innovations of 2014 list.Edico Genome raised $10 million in Series A financing in July 2014, which was led by Qualcomm Ventures and included Axon Ventures and Gregory T. Lucier, the former chairman and CEO of Life Technologies.Following the advent of the $1000 genome, enabled by Illumina’s HiSeq X Ten, the amount of data generated by next-generation sequencing has increased exponentially, and is outpacing Moore’s Law. DRAGEN is a reconfigurable Bio-IT Processor that is integrated on a PCIe card and is provided with accompanying software as a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS). The processor is loaded with highly optimized algorithms for the full NGS secondary analysis pipeline, including decompression, mapping, aligning, sorting, deduplication, compression and haplotype variant calling, and can be integrated directly into next-generation sequencing machines and bioinformatics servers.The processor reduces the time needed to analyze a whole human genome, from 24 hours to 18 minutes. It also reduces associated costs as it replaces the high-end computer servers otherwise needed for genome analysis as well as the required IT infrastructure, without compromising accuracy.DRAGEN launched in 2014 and is currently available for purchase. Edico Genome made its first sale of DRAGEN in September 2014 to Sequenom, a San Diego company focused on non-invasive prenatal testing.Edico Genome’s board of directors includes Lucier, Eric Topol , M.D., professor of genomics at The Scripps Research Institute; Charles Cantor, Ph.D., chief scientific officer of Sequenom; and Nils Homer, Ph.D., genomics informatics leader at the Broad Institute. The Series A investment was Lucier’s first following Life Technologies’ purchase by Thermo Fisher."@en }
