"A world leader in genome research delivering insights into human, evolutionary and pathogen biology"
The Wellcome Sanger Institute applies genomic technologies at scale to advance biology and improve health. The Institute generates and analyses large-scale genomic data across disease genomics to decipher molecular underpinnings of health and disease, engineering genomics to understand how DNA encodes biological functions, and planetary genomics exploring diverse species. Research impacts healthcare through new knowledge, foundational data resources, and trained genomics scientists. Work spans cellular genomics unravelling the human body cell by cell, human genetics focused on developmental disorders, parasites and microbes for disease control, somatic genomics exploring DNA changes, and biodiversity through the Tree of Life programme.
