GenapSys

GenapSys, Inc. is a private company headquartered in Redwood City, California. The company was founded by Dr. Hesaam Esfandyarpour. He and his team developed several novel technologies for DNA sequencing and protein detection at Stanford Genome Technology Center, prior to founding GenapSys in 2010.

With a strong background in electrical engineering (MS, PhD Electrical Engineering, Stanford), Dr. Esfandyarpour was able to conceive and demonstrate a novel and far higher efficiency method for DNA sequencing. Instead of optical-based technologies traditionally used in the industry, the GenapSys system centers around a pure electronic chip, with a simple, elegant, accurate and low-cost solution.

Since incorporation, GenapSys has built a stellar multidisciplinary team and set up headquarters in Redwood City, CA.
