What happened
Identifai Genetics, an Israeli company, plans to debut on the Australian stock exchange on October 13, aiming to raise $10 million to fund the commercialization of its next-generation pre-natal tests. The company was founded based on research conducted by Professor Noam Shomron, who heads the functional genomics team at Tel Aviv University. Identifai uses a machine learning algorithm to screen for over 280 inherited genetic conditions using a single maternal blood draw.
Why it matters
The initial public offering is designed to raise capital for the commercialization of Identifai Genetics' prenatal testing services. The company utilizes artificial intelligence to compare a fetus's cell-free DNA with its mother's to detect disease-causing mutations.
