Rady Children's Institute for Genomic Medicine

Rady Children’s Institute for Genomic Medicine is a non-profit research organization embedded within Rady Children’s Hospital-San Diego.

We pioneered a medical revolution to end the diagnostic odyssey for neonatal and pediatric rare disease. Now we’re moving to end the therapeutic odyssey.

We believe every child who is critically ill with an acute condition of unknown origin deserves a rapid diagnosis

They deserve that rapid diagnosis the first time they are hospitalized in intensive care – thereby saving them and their families countless tests and heartache.

And we are striving to end the therapeutic odyssey for children with devastating rare diseases by pinpointing the root cause of previously unidentified conditions.

Our scientists and innovators work on translating our discoveries into therapies and tools to guide clinical decision-making for providers at the bedside.

Rady Children’s Institute for Genomic Medicine pioneered a medical revolution through our record-breaking rapid Whole Genome Sequencing™ test. Our research into the use of rWGS® in a clinical NICU setting continues to lay the groundwork for systemic changes in pediatric healthcare.
