We combine the latest computational and experimental technologies to investigate how our genomes work to control the function of molecules, cells and tissues in people and populations. For more than half a century our research has been dedicated to understanding human genetic disease. Today we continue to apply our clinical and scientific expertise, harnessing the power of complex data, to improve health, and the lives of patients and their families.

Our DNA...Our Lives

This workshop will provide PhD students with skills to interface your research with industry and explore the role of scientists in industry/biotech: 24-26 April 2019

We seek to understand how DNA changes impact on human health and disease.

Our researchers have access to outstanding shared facilities.

Knowledge, skill sharing and translating our findings to the clinic.

Working at the MRC Human Genetics Unit and our partner Centres.

A vibrant research community ideally suited to postgraduate studies.
