Abstract
23andMe, a company pioneering on-demand genetic profiling, has attracted much attention, millions of customers and very significant investments, as well as some lucrative collaborations with the pharmaceutical industry. Yet the company is now in deep trouble, with shares worth pennies, and may go bankrupt in the near future. This article describes the firm’s history and attempts to understand its problems.
