Optra Health OptraGuru 'Digital Genetic Assistant'

Optra Health has introduced OptraGuru, an Amazon Alexa-compatible "digital genetic assistant" that allows consumers and healthcare professionals alike to verbally query genetic data. Meant to provide context to consumer genetic tests like those from Ancestry.com and 23andMe, OptraGuru puts the Alexa personal digital assistant on the front end of Optra Health's iPhronesis machine-learning platform to help patients, genetic counselors, and bioinformaticians make sense of genetic test results in a conversational manner.
