脱氧核糖核酸浪漫 translates complex biological signals into meaningful human connections. By moving beyond superficial data, we identify compatibility through the documented influence of genetic markers on physical attraction, combined with established psychological frameworks.
Our approach integrates DNA analysis with nuanced personality insights to surface matches with a shared foundation of chemistry and values. From romantic partnership to specialized family-building through our sister apps, we provide a scientifically-driven context for lasting relationships.

We explore the biological mechanisms of attraction - often sensed subconsciously through scent - and identify the personality pairings that support long-term stability. At DNA Romance, we focus on the intrinsic role of genomic diversity in human attraction and partnership success.
Our goal is to provide individuals with the data necessary to find partners who resonate on both a biological and psychological level. We continuously refine our predictive models to reflect the latest research in genomics and social science.

我们的基因兼容性分析侧重于HLA基因(人类白细胞抗原),这些基因在免疫系统功能和配偶选择中发挥着至关重要的作用。研究表明,人们自然会被拥有互补HLA基因的其他人吸引,从而导致更强的浪漫化学反应和更健康的后代。
是的,当然。您的基因数据经过加密并安全存储。我们只分析与兼容性相关的特定基因,绝不会与第三方共享您的数据。您拥有自己的数据,并且可以随时删除它。
Our personality matching is based on established psychological frameworks including MBTI personality types. While no system is perfect, personality compatibility has been shown to be a strong predictor of relationship satisfaction when combined with physical attraction and shared values.
我们接受来自大多数主要测试服务的原始 DNA 数据,包括 23andMe、AncestryDNA、MyHeritage、FamilyTreeDNA 和许多其他服务。您可以从您的测试服务下载您的原始 DNA 文件并将其上传到 DNA Romance。
不需要。虽然 DNA 兼容性提供了额外的见解,但您可以使用 DNA Romance 进行个性匹配。许多用户从个性匹配开始,并在准备好后添加 DNA 数据。

Follow-up to the classic t-shirt study. Men and women evaluated odour samples from MHC-typed donors; preferences fell on MHC-dissimilar partners more often than chance - but the underlying signal favours heterozygosity rather than specific allele combinations.
