23andMe, the personal genetics company started by Google founder Sergey Brin's wife Anne Wojcicki, is set to officially launch with a live webcast this Monday. Both founders (Linda Avey and Anne Wojcicki) will be in attendance to answer questions from the media about the launch of their company.

The personal genetics space has been active this week, as Navigenics announced they raised $25 million to do its work. They also announced that they had officially launched, although no services would be rendered until early next year. Google and Mohr Davidow Ventures have stake in both companies (although only to the tune of an extra $9 million for 23anMe).
