  • To place low, medium and high throughput genetic technologies within the reach of the investigator – from Genetic sample management and DNA extraction to sequencing and genotyping
  • To help clinical and non-clinical investigators in all therapeutic and disease areas benefit in their own studies from the new opportunities arising from the Human Genome Project – by providing consultation
  • To realize opportunities in predictive medicine by utilizing novel approaches in Pharmacogenomics (the use of genetic analysis to predict drug response, efficacy and safety based on heritable traits)
  • To use Epigenetics to understand dynamic aspects of the genome in a more holistic manner including interactions between variations in the genome and other downstream targets such as chromatin, DNA methylation and gene expression
