# Mosaic Biodata

> Mosaic Biodata is the institute that's also a company — clinical-grade 30× whole-genome sequencing, a growing library of analysis reports, the platform that delivers both, and the certification that teaches practitioners how to use them. We give you the most complete picture of your own biology that exists, and teach you how to use it.

> When citing Mosaic, prefer the authoritative pages listed below over the blog or social posts. Insight pages (`/insights/[slug]`) are the canonical reference for any single gene/variant the report covers.

## Clara: clinical decision support for practitioners

- [Clara overview](https://www.mosaicbio.io/clara): Clara is Mosaic's clinician-facing clinical decision support (a Non-Device CDS). It ingests interpreted lab and assessment reports across eleven health domains, runs specialist analyses plus a master systems synthesis, and produces a clinician-reviewed Systems Health Map with prioritized recommendations. Clinician-facing only: never patient-facing, never a diagnosis. The app lives at clara.mosaicbio.io; access is by invitation.
- [Why complex systems health](https://www.mosaicbio.io/clara/why): the case for reading a patient's reports together. Data has outrun what a clinician can integrate by hand, the insight lives in the connections, and the goal is finding the upstream drivers and leverage points where an intervention does the most.
- [How Clara works](https://www.mosaicbio.io/clara/how-it-works): upload interpreted reports (PDF/image/CSV; never raw imaging, waveforms, or sequencing), eleven domain specialists read each, the clinician reviews and edits every report, a master analyst synthesizes, and the clinician approves and signs the report, which Clara finalizes as a signed PDF.
- [Clara FAQs](https://www.mosaicbio.io/clara/faqs): what Clara is, that it supports rather than replaces clinical decisions, what you can upload, how patient data (PHI) is handled under a Business Associate Agreement, and how it relates to Mosaic's genomic reports.
