freexplorefreexploreIf your child is ever prescribed one of these medicines, this gives their doctor a head start — whether the usual dose should work, or may need a tweak. Most are the usual dose; anything worth flagging is up top.
These genes only affect how the body may handle certain medicines — they are not condition-causing and don’t mean your child has any illness.
From Tanner’s clinical report (pharmacogenomics). Plain-language guidance, not a prescription — your child’s doctor confirms the exact medicine and dose. Tap any row for the gene detail and source.
No rush — nothing here needs action today. Whenever you’re ready:
Your screening flags what’s worth acting on now. These optional add-ons answer the other questions parents ask — planning for future children, getting to know your child’s everyday traits, and keeping the report current as the science grows. Each runs on the same cheek swab, so there’s never a new sample to give.
Your child can be a healthy carrier — carrying one changed copy of a gene without being affected themselves. It matters most for family planning: if both biological parents carry a change in the same gene, a future child has a higher chance of being affected. This add-on screens your child’s DNA for carrier findings across hundreds of recessive conditions and explains, in plain language, what each one could mean for your family.
A lighthearted look at well-studied, single-gene traits written into your child’s DNA — like whether cilantro tastes soapy, bitter-taste sensitivity, caffeine metabolism, earwax type, and eye color. Purely for curiosity, never a diagnosis — and we show you the exact gene behind each one.
Genetics moves fast. This is a one-time re-check of your child’s existing data against the latest science — no new sample needed — flagging anything newly worth a conversation. Want it to happen automatically, forever? It’s built into Fore Explore.
Fore Explore is Fore’s premium membership — the base plan that keeps Tanner’s report alive. It opens the deeper, still-emerging findings now (lower-certainty genes and fuller medication insights), and keeps the whole report current as the science moves — no new sample, ever.
We screen 927 carefully chosen genes — ones with strong, well-established links to childhood conditions — read from your child’s whole genome. Most consumer DNA tests only check a preset sample of spots on a chip; we sequence every letter, so we can read these genes directly rather than guessing from nearby markers. We surface only the changes that have a clear medical record, and explain each in plain language. It’s a screen to flag what’s worth a conversation, not a diagnosis.
Based on your child’s whole-genome sequencing in our clinical lab, interpreted against our curated screening panel of 974 conditions.
Your child’s DNA is about 3 billion letters long. A variant is simply a spot spelled a little differently from the standard reference. Everyone has millions — most are completely harmless.
Each result shows the gene, the condition it’s linked to, and — in plain language — whether it’s worth a conversation. We only look inside the genes we screen.
Bring anything labeled “worth a conversation” to your child’s pediatrician. Most results are reassuring or simply uncertain — and nothing here is a diagnosis on its own.
Most of your child’s differences are well understood and considered harmless — common in healthy children. We set aside 0 of them so the report can focus on what matters. Nothing is discarded; they remain part of your child’s data.
Quick, tappable questions that make Tanner’s report a little more personal over time — and, shared only de-identified, quietly help research.
Gene: BRCA2 · Area: Oncology
What it can mean & signs to know: A cancer-risk gene. Inherited changes raise lifetime risk of certain (usually adult-onset) cancers. Knowing early guides screening — it is not a diagnosis.
Educational summary — not medical advice or a diagnosis. Symptoms and severity vary; please discuss any result with your child’s doctor or a genetic counselor.
Condition detail is summarized from OMIM and GeneReviews; gene–disease links from ClinGen; variant classifications from ClinVar, using ACMG/AMP criteria.
