Genomics and rare disease research

Our genetic and rare disease research helps us diagnose and deliver advanced treatments for genetic disorders.

Our research in genomics and rare diseases are leading a new frontier of diagnosing and treating serious illnesses and conditions for children. Through our clinical interfaces, we are able to offer better diagnosis, prognosis and novel treatment options as a result of this research. The Sydney Children's Hospitals Network is at the forefront of genetic medicine, manufacturing clinical-grade vectors on-site at our Westmead site at the gene and cell medicine facility.
