The Oxford Centre for Genomic Medicine (OxGEM) clinical genetics service has a long history of leading and supporting genetic research.
The department has strong links with the University of Oxford and the NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Centre, with a focus on promoting and funding translational genetic research projects.
We are actively involved in recruiting patients for local and national exome and whole genome sequencing projects. We also work with international collaborators.

We are a Genomic Medicine Centre as part of the 100,000 Genomes Project.
Some of the research studies we are involved in are listed below:
