How to get your raw files from 23andMe

23andMe lets you download your own raw genomic data. The whole process takes about 2 minutes. You will receive a .txt file that can be imported directly into Fern Gene.

L'essentiel

  • Log in to 23andMe.com, go to Settings, click Download Raw Data, accept the terms, and download.
  • The .txt file uses GRCh37/hg19 coordinates. Fern Gene handles the conversion automatically.
  • Open Fern Gene, tap Import, select the .txt file. Analysis runs locally in 2-5 minutes.
