Clinical Genomics Uppsala

Clinical Genomics Uppsala is jointly set up by Uppsala University, Uppsala University Hospital and SciLifeLab with the aim to catalyze the transition of novel research findings into molecular diagnostics for clinical use. The unit is fully integrated within the Uppsala University Hospital and has extensive experience in development and implementation of state-of-the-art next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology in routine diagnostics. We take on research and development projects with a clear translational profile. With our team of associated geneticists, bioinformaticians and medical doctors, we can deliver clinical assessments of the detected variants with the aim to truly provide bench-to-bedside service.
