为什么23andme没有进入中国市场？

个人猜测：
 1. 样品出入境很麻烦，需要建立本地实验室或者合作实验室。
2. 外资不允许直接收集中国人遗传数据，合资估计也很难获批，VIE结构在这个领域似乎还没有先例。
3. 产品没有为中国人群优化，例如，芯片上设计的位点没有考虑中国人群的SNP、祖源分析等对中国人群太粗。
…………
 
好吧，我觉得，23andme不进入的最大原因是因为我们有WeGene了，它不想成为易趣第二……

祝wegene早日占领中国13亿的市场！

请参考《人类遗传资源管理条例(送审稿)》(2016)版第二章第九条明确规定：
 
第二章　人类遗传资源的采集和收集
第九条　在我国境内开展人类遗传资源的采集和收集活动，应当具备下列条件：
（一）开展采集和收集活动的主体应为我国境内的内资法人单位；
 
虽然以前的老版规定没有像修改版中做出具体规定，但其默认的采集资格就是内资法人单位。
 
 

My husband is Chinese, born n China, but now living in the US. He had his DNA tested by 23and me. Would the results be good for wegene? Would they be transferable? Is it safe to transfer?

I have tried under two different emails. It says it cannot recognize them. My husband's data was not very good with 23andme. Probably not enough Chinese database. Can you help me, please? Thank you. Andrea

Zionas, his results are 96.6 Chinese (being 99% East Asian, less than 0.1% European and less 0.1% Sub Saharan). Wegene will not allow me to post; I am 77 years old and computers are not easy for me. Thanks.

@Andrea39 You can follow the steps below:

1. Log into your WeGene account, and click Settings on the top-right of the page.
2. Scroll down the new page and click the pink button labeled "Import 23andMe Data."
3. A new browser window will probably pop up. In the new window, enter your 23andMe username (an email address) and password.
4. Follow the instructions to complete the data importation process.

If the process fails, it may be due to (i) the use of a wrong email address or wrong password or (ii) poor internet connection between WeGene and 23andMe. Even with the correct username and password, you may need to try two or more times to complete the process when the data flow between WeGene and 23andMe is constricted because of filtering by the Chinese internet regulator.

Good luck!

谁知道23andme和wegene哪个好些
