Welcome to Oxford NHS Genomic Medicine Centre
Proudly supporting the 100,000 Genomes Project
April 2018 - Undiagnosed Genetic Conditions: information event
- Does your child have global development delay (GDD) or learning/physical difficulties that are unexplained?
- Has your child had genetic tests that have come back negative or with results of unknown clinical significance?
- Is your child taking part in, or are you hoping they will take part in, genetic research such as Deciphering Developmental Disorders (DDD) or the 100,000 Genomes Project?
If you answered yes to any, or all, of the above questions, come along to our SWAN UK information event in Oxford on 26 April 2018 - places are free but booking is essential.

Oxford Genomic Medicine Centre (GMC) is an NHS partnership led by Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, working to improve the understanding of the genetic causes of cancer and rare diseases by helping to deliver the 100,000 Genomes Project.
The Centre is one of 13 GMCs created by NHS England in 2015, each chosen for its track-record of providing excellence in genomic services.
We are working with delivery partners across the Thames Valley, Buckinghamshire, Northamptonshire and Wiltshire to transform the way patients with rare genetic disease or cancer are diagnosed and treated.
"Genomics is not tomorrow. It's here today. We need to welcome the genomic era and deliver the genomic dream!"
