Illumina Celebrates Genetic Counselor Awareness Day

3 November 2021

At Illumina, we have over 20 in-house genetic counselors in various departments that work closely with scientists, researchers, and our customers to ensure we are providing the most accurate technologies. Genetic counselors serve as advocates for not only the patient but the patient’s entire family— to ensure siblings, parents, aunts, uncles, children and more can all benefit from genetic testing. Genetic counselors can provide emotional support, discuss whether or how to deliver difficult findings to family members, and also provide recommendations for community support services.
