deCODE is a genomics and health informatics company which is developing products and services for the healthcare industry. We develop and apply modern informatics technology to discover new knowledge about health and disease through data-mining. We believe that certain unique qualities of the Icelandic population, together with our advanced bioinformatics and high throughput genotyping facility, should place deCODE at a competitive advantage to perform genetic and medical research to identify disease genes and drug and diagnostic targets. As the international effort to sequence the human genome progresses, we believe that the principal task will be to transform raw genomic data into knowledge about human health and disease and then into tangible products and services. We believe that deCODE is well-positioned to place the human genome sequence in a meaningful context through which we and our partners can generate value.
