Understand your DNA. Learn how to apply it to your life.
From your cheek swab sample, we analyze your genetic predispositions related to sports, nutrition, health and lifestyle habits, and turn the results into a personal, actionable roadmap.
The analysis is carried out in a genetic diagnostic laboratory licensed by the Turkish Ministry of Health (T.C. Sağlık Bakanlığı).
The license and quality certificates belong to the laboratory where the analysis is performed; Hub Genetik is responsible for evaluating and reporting the analysis results. For laboratory and accreditation information, see the Laboratory Accreditation page.
TECHNOLOGY
Microarray and the analysis process
Genotyping is performed with an mPCR-augmented Axiom DNA microarray.
A microarray reads predefined positions (variants) in your DNA. It does not sequence the entire genome from start to finish; therefore, the report is limited to selected variants with scientific evidence. Some of the reported variants are read directly on the chip, while others are statistically estimated using a reference panel (imputation); the reliability of estimated genotypes is lower than that of directly read ones. Reports are presented under 21 topics.
SCIENTIFIC ASSESSMENT
Evidence level and sources
Findings are linked to PubMed, GWAS Catalog and ClinVar records.
Each finding is assigned an evidence level: strong, moderate or limited. Findings with limited evidence are marked separately in the report, and the wording of recommendations is softened accordingly.
DATA SECURITY
KVKK, encryption and deletion
Data is encrypted and access is controlled. Deletion requests are fulfilled within 30 days of the date they reach us. (KVKK is Turkey’s Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698.)
Your sample and data are matched to a code kept separate from your identity information. Access is limited to authorized personnel and is logged. No data is shared with third parties.
Your report is not just the final output of an algorithm
Through scientific assessment and expert commentary, the findings become a clear, understandable guide.

Frequently asked questions
Grouped by where you are in your decision
Start by choosing what you want to learn. A short guided quiz recommends 1–3 packages based on your interests. If you are still undecided, you can write to our expert support.
Adult packages are designed for adults, and kids' packages are designed for children. Kids' packages require parental consent.
Kids' packages provide supportive information about sports tendencies, recovery, injury predisposition, nutrition, and focus and learning tendencies. They do not predict talent or success.
A cheek swab is taken from the inside of your cheek using the swab in the kit. It is done at home and takes about 5 minutes.
No. There is no blood draw and no needle; only a cell sample is taken from the inside of your cheek.
The kit is delivered to your address within 2 business days after your order is confirmed; shipping is covered by Hub Genetik. You send your sample to the laboratory using the sample return package included in the kit; return shipping is also covered by Hub Genetik. The sample remains stable at room temperature for 7 days.
Once your sample reaches the laboratory, your digital report is prepared within 18–21 business days.
When your report is ready, you are notified by email and the report is sent to you as a PDF. A technical summary you can share with your physician is provided separately, depending on your package.
Yes. You can request your raw data file by writing to info@hubgenetik.com. Raw data is uninterpreted genotype information; on its own, it does not constitute a health or performance result.
Findings go through a scientific evaluation process, and expert commentary is added. A post-report consultation session is offered depending on your package.
A predisposition indicates that a certain trait or response may be more likely than average. It is not a definitive result and should be considered together with lifestyle and clinical data.
No. The reports do not replace a medical diagnosis. For clinical decisions, please consult your physician.
Your DNA sequence does not change; however, the interpretation of findings may be updated as the scientific literature evolves. When new variant findings emerge, a new evaluation can be made from your existing data.
Yes. A finding that may be clinically significant should be confirmed with a verification test performed on a new sample at an independent laboratory. You can request your raw data file; however, reinterpreting raw data elsewhere does not replace this verification.
Data is stored in encrypted systems in compliance with KVKK (Turkey's Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698) and is not shared with third parties.
Access is limited to authorized personnel involved in the process, and access logs are kept.
Yes. You can request deletion of your personal and genetic data via info@hubgenetik.com. Your deletion request is fulfilled within 30 days of the date it reaches us. If there are records that must be retained by law, their scope is explained separately.
Payment is accepted by credit or debit card as a single payment. Installments are not available.
Hub Genetik does not offer a voluntary or unconditional refund guarantee. Your rights as a consumer under applicable law, including the right of withdrawal and rights relating to defective services, are reserved. Details are on the Delivery and Return Terms and Distance Sales Agreement pages.
The cheek swab is painless and takes about 5 minutes. If your child doesn't want to do it that day, you can take the sample later, at a calm moment. For your legal rights before the kit is used, please see the Delivery and Return Terms page.
