The Clinical Genetics laboratories located at the Juravinski site provide expertise in molecular genetic testing for both congenital disorders and inherited or somatic cancer syndromes. Our laboratory directors and scientists certified by the Canadian College of Medical Geneticists or the American Board of Medical Genetics are leaders in the field who collaborate with laboratory technologists, genetic counselors, and clinicians to develop molecular assays that increase mutation detection for improved patient care.
