Pathogen intelligence for biosurveillance, emerging threats, and national preparedness.
Theiagen can help federal agencies operationalize pathogen genomics for biosurveillance, emerging threat detection, force health protection, and national surveillance programs — bringing the science, systems, and expertise required to support mission-critical decision making.
We understand your world
Federal agencies are responsible for monitoring pathogen threats across large, complex, and often rapidly changing environments. Whether the mission is biosurveillance, health protection, antimicrobial resistance monitoring, food and agricultural security, or emerging threat detection, the challenge is rarely generating sequencing data.
The challenge is turning that data into reliable, actionable intelligence that can be used consistently across programs, laboratories, agencies, and jurisdictions. Scientific expertise is difficult to maintain across every pathogen type. Staff turnover can erode institutional knowledge. Workflows must remain current as technologies, threats, and reporting requirements evolve.
Building a sustainable pathogen intelligence capability requires more than sequencing. It requires the science, systems, bioinformatics consulting and operational expertise needed to transform genomic data into confident decision-making. That's where Theiagen helps.
