Shared Stories of Success
Groundbreaking Research
We cultivate a diverse research community dedicated to advancing the understanding of genomic science and the treatment of human disease.
Innovative Technology Platforms
Our multidisciplinary team of scientists, engineers, and NYGC faculty come together to explore and test innovative genomic tools and technologies to drive progress within our center and the broader scientific community.
Clinical Genetics
The New York Genome Center has a state-of-the-art clinical diagnostic laboratory that utilizes next-generation sequencing technology to perform cutting-edge tests in the areas of genetics and oncology. The Clinical Laboratory is accredited by the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) and the Clinical Laboratory Evaluation Program of the New York State Department of Health (CLEP). It is licensed to perform clinical testing in all fifty (50) of the United States and the District of Columbia. The laboratory participates in the College of American Pathologists (CAP) proficiency testing.
Celebrating Diverse Perspectives
At the NYGC, we’re committed to building a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace culture where everyone can contribute to our mission of advancing genomic research.
