Anne Wojcicki is recognized among Jewish contributors to Science & Medicine — Co-founder and CEO of 23andMe (2006), which brought personal genetics to millions.
Daughter of Esther Wojcicki, the educator whose parents were Russian Jewish immigrants — the Jewish line runs through her mother — Anne Wojcicki left Wall Street health-care analysis to co-found 23andMe in 2006. The spit-in-a-tube DNA kit brought ancestry and health genetics to millions of ordinary people, including hundreds of thousands who discovered Jewish roots they never knew. Her sister Susan ran YouTube; the family garage had already housed the founding of Google.
