Rhythm Biosciences Ltd. ( (AU:RHY) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Rhythm Biosciences has entered a strategic partnership with the Australian Genome Research Facility to establish an Australian-based reference laboratory for its geneType genotyping services, enabling local processing of more than 100,000 tests annually. The deal is designed to cut turnaround times and shipping costs, improve service responsiveness, and keep patient samples and data within Australian regulatory frameworks, a key factor for privacy-focused clinicians and institutional buyers. Working alongside its existing US partner Gene by Gene, Rhythm is creating a dual-laboratory, capital‑efficient operating model that builds redundancy, reduces supply chain risk and supports commercial-scale deployment. The AGRF collaboration, expected to begin processing in Q3 FY26, underpins Rhythm’s plans to expand into Southeast Asia in the second half of 2026 by using Australia as a scalable regional processing hub, strengthening its competitiveness for institutional contracts where local processing, data sovereignty and rapid turnaround are critical selection criteria.
