About us.
Founded by biotech experts, Mendel's combines nutrition, genetics, and convenience to help individuals achieve wellbeing.
Who is Mendel?
Often called the “father of genetics”, Gregor Mendel was a Catholic monk whose scientific proposals in 1865 that lead to our modern understanding of how traits may be inherited through generations. Using peas growing in his church garden located in Brno, Mendel completed a decade-long research project to investigate patterns of inheritance.
Meet the founders.
Rob and Regan are Vancouver-based scientists who worked with cutting edge technology in medical research at The University of British Columbia. They both have over ten years of experience in the medical sciences and the biotech industry.

Mendel's is a Canadian business based in Vancouver, with a state-of-the-art DNA testing lab at The University of British Columbia and a team of friendly individuals.
Make science useful.
We founded Mendel’s to use modern scientific information in people’s everyday lives. Since the sequencing of the first human genome, the scientific community has found that individual bodies can vary in absorption and metabolism of nutrients, much of which is coded by variants in functional genes. Built by qualified physicians, geneticists, and medical scientists, our technology helps individuals make informed decisions about health and wellness.
