research focus & interest

Our group uses the patient resources of the VCGS Pathology Cytogenetics and Molecular Cytogenetics laboratories to improve testing methods and introduce new technologies for novel tests. VCGS Pathology is the largest genetics testing laboratory in Australia and as such, is able to identify opportunities both for the CytoMolecular Diagnostic Research group and for other groups within MCRI.

Our group has a very significant publication record and is widely recognised as a leader in translating research into innovative laboratory genetic diagnosis.
