  • About Us

    Genomics is igniting a revolution in healthcare. Information from deep databases of human genomes is changing the practice of medicine as we know it today. The Institute for Genomic Health leads the effort to harness the power of genomic discovery to develop new ways to prevent and treat diseases, including cancers, heart problems, and genetic disorders. Our faculty of experts in genomics, medicine, and computer science are pioneering multi-disciplinary approaches to translate genomic findings into the medical knowledge that will help us center genomic information in routine clinical care in a way that will promote health equity.
