Reading the Genome: from chromosomes to DNA sequencing
Highlighting the molecular basis of pathological conditions may allow to better define patients outcome, setting more effective therapies, and take care of the at risk relatives.
Our laboratory is involved in defining the molecular basis of disease both in children and adults, as well as in prenatal setting.
Genetic counseling is always provided as essential part of the flow chart analysis.
Our studies make use of different technical approaches and a close collaboration with the medical corps of the city hospitals and San Matteo Hospital in particular.
