Research focus 02

Genetic disease
research.

A phenotype-first approach to common and rare genetic disorders, connecting clinical presentation, biological pathways, candidate genes and genomic evidence.

Our approach

Complex phenotypes.
Clear investigation.

Genetic diseases can affect virtually every system in the body. Our research approach organizes this complexity by clinical category, then applies appropriate molecular technologies to investigate the genes and variants that may contribute to disease.

Clinical areas

Research across
the human system.

01

Neurologic disorders

Research into inherited and complex conditions affecting the brain, nerves and neuromuscular system.

02

Metabolic disease

Investigation of genetic conditions affecting biochemical pathways, nutrition and metabolism.

03

Newborn screening

Research supporting panels for early identification of selected actionable inherited disorders.

04

Multisystem conditions

Phenotype-driven study of rare diseases, congenital differences and disorders spanning several organ systems.

05

Eye and hearing disorders

Genomic investigation of inherited sensory conditions and their heterogeneous genetic causes.

06

Musculoskeletal disease

Research across skeletal, connective-tissue and inherited muscle disorders.

Research pathway

Phenotype. Evidence.
Interpretation.

Our stepwise framework begins with careful clinical characterization, proceeds through molecular analysis and evidence review, and supports research into early detection and timely intervention.
