European Society of Human Genetics Milan, Italy: Children who are born severely ill or who develop serious illness in the first few weeks of life are often difficult to diagnose, with considerable implications for their short and longer-term care. Whole genome sequencing*carried out quickly has the potential to provide an early diagnosis, and thus improve […]

Innovations in Whole Genome Sequencing Speed Answers and Hope for Newborns and Children with Rare, Genetic Diseases San Diego—Feb. 12, 2018–Scientists at the Rady Children’s Institute for Genomic Medicine (RCIGM) have compressed the time needed to decode rare genetic disorders in newborns through DNA sequencing to less than a day.
San Diego—Jan. 3, 2018 – The Rady Children’s Institute for Genomic Medicine (RCIGM) is pleased to announce that six influential life science researchers have been recruited to serve on the Institute’s inaugural Scientific Advisory Board (SAB). “Each of these brilliant scientists is an authority in their respective field,” said Dr. Stephen Kingsmore, president and CEO […]
San Diego – November 17, 2017 – Rady Children’s Institute for Genomic Medicine (RCIGM) is now licensed and certified to perform clinical grade diagnostic testing to decode the DNA of babies and children with rare genetic disorders. Rapid whole genome sequencing (rWGS) is being deployed under clinical research studies being conducted by scientists at the […]
Concerns over the Zika virus have focused on pregnant women due to mounting evidence that it causes brain abnormalities in developing fetuses. However, new research in mice from scientists at The Rockefeller University and La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology suggests that certain adult brain cells may be vulnerable to infection as well. Among […]
San Diego/Minneapolis, Minn. – July 11, 2017 – Uniting to advance pediatric precision medicine, Rady Children’s Institute for Genomic Medicine has signed an agreement with Children’s Minnesota to provide Rapid Whole Genome Sequencing (rWGS) to more effectively treat critically ill infants in Children’s Minnesota’s neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
Collaboration between two Southern California Children’s Hospitals Aimed at Advancing Precision Medicine San Diego – June 20, 2017 – In the first outreach beyond San Diego County, Rady Children’s Institute for Genomic Medicine (RCIGM) has signed an agreement with CHOC Children’s (CHOC) to provide rapid whole genome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis to help critically ill […]
