Undiagnosed Diseases Center
Baylor College of Medicine's Undiagnosed Diseases Center is a team of physicians from different specialties who have come together with the goal of helping individuals who remain undiagnosed despite extensive testing. We strive to partner with patients’ medical providers in the evaluation of their challenging cases. Notice: Currently only accepting patients who reside in the United States.
Consultagene
Designed by the Department of Molecular and Human Genetics at Baylor College of Medicine, Consultagene is a platform that provides genetics educational resources and healthcare services such as telegenetic counseling and peer-to-peer consultations.
Baylor College of Medicine & Rice University Genome Editing Testing Center
The Baylor/Rice Genome Editing Testing Center (GETC) offers researchers in vivo evaluation of genome editing activity, biodistribution and efficacy in mouse models as a fee-for-service.
Education
Learn about the genetics and genomics graduate program, the medical genetics residencies and laboratory fellowships, medical student education, the masters in genetic counseling program, the clinical research education training program in medical genetics, and programs for visiting students.
All of Us Evenings with Genetics Research Program
The All of Us Evenings with Genetics Research Program aims to engage researchers from diverse backgrounds to utilize the National Institutes of Health's All of Us data resources to advance precision medicine. The program is funded in part by the NIH All of Us Research Program.
The MHG Office of Community Engagement and Equity
The Office of Community Engagement and Equity in the Department of Molecular and Human Genetics works alongside the Baylor College of Medicine’s Office of Community Engagement & Health Equity to promote an environment that fosters inclusion, education and understanding for faculty, trainees, staff, and the community-at-large. By signing up for our monthly newsletter you will receive information on local and online events we organize.
Evenings with Genetics
Evenings with Genetics is a seminar series about genetics and your family’s health. This series offers the most current information on care and research for many genetic conditions and is open to the public.
Statewide Outreach
In a collaborative effort to educate the public on genetic developmental disorders, The department along with the University of Texas at Austin - Texas Center for Disability Studies, the Texas Department of State Health Services, and Texas Children's regularly host a series of community webinars across the State of Texas.
BCM-GREGoR Research Program
The vision of the BCM-GREGoR research program is to translate genomic discovery and functional phenotyping to precision molecular diagnosis in the clinic while advance genomics and human genetics research. The program seeks to advance understanding of gene function through defining all Mendelian disease traits and cataloging the phenotypic impact of variant alleles across all ~20,000 protein coding genes.
ENCODE
The Aiden Laboratory/Center for Genome Architecture at Baylor College of Medicine is the 3D genome mapping center for the ENCyclopedia Of DNA Elements Project at the US National Institutes of Health.
ClinGen
ClinGen is a National Institutes of Health-funded resource dedicated to building a central resource that defines the clinical relevance of genes and variants for use in precision medicine and research.
Medical Genetics Multiomics Laboratory
The Medical Genetics Multiomics Laboratory (MGML) leverages the power of cutting-edge multiomic technologies to deliver accurate and personalized insights into genetic diagnostics, driving advancements in patient care and therapeutic innovation.
