About Us

Gene Target Solutions is a local Australian Company supplying innovative solutions and technical support to the life sciences sector.

Our Vision: “To provide integrated solutions designed to increase efficiency and improve confidence, enabling our scientists to advance our understanding of the entire genome, thus leading to a better understanding of diseases globally.”

We know scientific discovery often happens in small steps. We believe relentless focus and attention to detail drive results, requiring a mindset that constantly challenges and refines procedures. This approach leads to the development of superior technologies and tools for scientists. Guided by this vision, we’ve carefully selected our portfolio of products for genomic studies.

We partner with leading global biotechnology companies such as QuantaBioDeNovix,  Biotium, Kurabo, BioMolecular Systems (formally known as Corbett Research), &  LGC Biosearch Technologies all innovative developers, and manufacturers of life science tools and integrated systems for large-scale genetic analysis. These partnerships help our scientists in Australia accelerate the collection, analysis, and application of biological data, driving new and improved methods to enhance health and prevent diseases in individuals and populations. Our extensive portfolio of cutting-edge sequencing, array-based solutions, qPCR technologies, and DNA/RNA fragment analysis addresses a range of genomic complexities and throughputs, allowing researchers to select the optimal solution for their scientific challenges.

Gene Target Solutions takes a flexible, consultative approach to meet all our scientists’ pre-sales, sales, and after-sales needs. We are committed to delivering integrated solutions that boost efficiency and enhance confidence. We actively engage with clients to understand their direction, identify the problems they face, and explore the implications of those challenges. Then, we collaborate with clients to develop tailored solutions that meet their specific needs. We work alongside scientists in universities, hospitals, medical research institutes, government agencies like CSIRO, Departments of Primary Industries, and companies in biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, veterinary, and agriculture.

At Gene Target Solutions, we stand by our commitment to support clients well beyond the delivery of their products.

Our Team
