Introducing
The Emerge™ Health Data Platform
Jura Health centralizes access to Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS), genetic counseling, patient education and advocacy into one location. As a public benefit corporation, we are working towards making the most powerful genetic information available to everyone. We do this by giving you unparalleled access to your genetic information and connecting you to relevant research and support.
The Emerge™ DNA Test:
Whole Genome Sequencing
We are excited to bring the services of Broad Clinical Labs (BCL) to the individual patient. This CLIA-licensed and CAP-accredited lab has powered some of the world’s largest WGS projects, including the Human Genome Project. Unlike other tests that focus on specific genes and leave out large portions of your genetic code, our test analyzes your whole genome of roughly 20,000 genes with results returned as early as 4 weeks. The final result is a patient report that can help inform your physician to make a diagnosis.
You can also include ACMG 78 screening at no extra cost. Variants of these 78 genes are linked to medically actionable conditions that are preventable or treatable (such as BRCA, Lynch Syndrome, and familial high cholesterol).

Result Interpretation
Each Patient Report is provided with a customized interpretation that leverages genomic, phenotypic, and clinical data to achieve extreme sensitivity.
Genetic variant analysis - including complex structural variants, a patient’s symptoms and clinical information, and probabilistic disease condition matching - results in a handful of likely diagnoses from raw sequence data. By prioritizing diagnosis, the clinical team can concentrate on the most likely possibilities, with the goal of reducing time to diagnosis.
Emerge™ DNA Counseling:
Genetic Counseling
Jura Health provides access to pre- and post-test genetic counseling that utilizes artificial intelligence to aid and augment certified genetic counselors. When requested, patients speak to a live genetic counselor, licensed in their state, who is familiar with their patient report - at the patient’s convenience and on their schedule. The Emerge Platform even offers a chat feature that translates into dozens of languages.
Genetic counseling is available separately or as part of the Emerge Platform.
The Emerge™ Network:
Patient Advocacy and Disease-specific Support Resources and Research
Jura Health believes no patient with a rare disease should take the journey alone. As a critical component of the Emerge Platform, we offer each patient a personalized collection of rare disease advocacy groups, research, and clinical trials.
