      London, Ontario–headquartered EpiSign is revolutionizing rare disease diagnostics through AI

      Across global healthcare systems, millions of patients remain stuck in what clinicians call the ‘diagnostic odyssey—years of testing, referrals, and unanswered questions, especially for patients with rare genetic disorders. According to CARE4RARE Canada (formed under Finding Rare Disease Genes in Canada), fewer than one-third of patients with suspected rare genetic conditions ever receive a definitive diagnosis.
