GENOMA: an enormous wealth of technology and human resources, an example of quality, professionalism and skills.

GENOMA is a private molecular genetics laboratory, internationally renowned for its leadership in molecular diagnostics and Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) and for its pioneering work in infertility and genetics. As a pioneer in genomic testing and the commercialization of new diagnostic technologies, GENOMA represents one of the world's largest, fully integrated, specialized provider of genetics services.

The GENOMA laboratory is the result of an innovative project and a new way of approaching laboratory activities: the creation of a highly specialised diagnostic centre, through which we provide a quality support in the field of genetics and molecular biology.

Established in 1998 for its scientific director and CEO, Dr. Francesco FIORENTINO, GENOMA has become a positive reality in Italian and international health provision. GENOMA operates, in Italy and abroad, providing principally laboratory services for cytogenetic and molecular genetic analysis for health structures, both public and private, laboratories, hospitals, fertility clinics, physicians and patients, with the aim of providing a complete service that can satisfy the most diverse requirements in the field of molecular diagnosis.

GENOMA was founded on several core insights that created the model for molecular genetics centre across the country and around the world. GENOMA has based its strength on its level of equipment, the most modern and technologically advanced that is currently available, continually updated in line with technological progress and newly emerging diagnostic requirements, as well as on the use of sophisticated and innovative analytical methods.

Widely respected for its excellence, innovation and deep scientific base, GENOMA is the centre of choice for groundbreaking genetic services worldwide. Our staff includes leaders in the fields of cytogenetics, medical and molecular genetics. Our experience and depth of knowledge in these fields allow us to provide the highest level of accuracy and success to our patients. Our physicians and scientists are internationally recognized experts in their respective fields.

Thanks to the invaluable contribution of an independent Research and Development Department, which is aimed primarily at the study and creation of new methods of molecular diagnosis, GENOMA offers a wide range of services, among the most extensive worldwide, which allows the centre to offer its patients solutions to the majority of emerging diagnostic needs. We have a uniquely strong commitment to research and we are at the forefront of genetic diagnosis and testing.

Headquartered in Rome, Italy, GENOMA offers more than 500 different genetic tests ranging from routine genetic analyses to the most sophisticated molecular diagnostics. In our centre in Rome, we are able, directly, to satisfy increasingly specialised requests in the field of molecular diagnosis, providing our clients with a highly specialised, precise, efficient and speedy service.

GENOMA combines its expertise in innovative clinical testing technology with specialized Department of Excellence: Recurrent miscarriages, Molecular Cardiology, Cytogenetics, Molecular Cytogenetics, Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD), Prenatal Diagnosis, Pharmacogenetics, Biochemical Genetics, Forensic Genetics, Molecular Genetics, Reproductive Genetics, Molecular diagnosis of Infectious Diseases, Infertility, Predictive Medicine, Nutrigenetics, Molecular Oncology, Paternity and Consanguinity testing.

In the last few years, furthermore, we have increased our interventional capacity and taken on an international dimension with the opening of branches in London and Istanbul, and we have also formed partnerships in France, Saudi Arabia and Greece, as well as establishing a large clientele in Europe, the United States and the Middle East.

GENOMA, today, represents one of the most advanced molecular diagnostic laboratories in Europe, serving more than 600 health and hospital structures in Italy and abroad, with 4 certified and accredited laboratories, and performing over 50,000 genetic tests a year.

The quality and range of services provided, along with its efficiency and trustworthiness, have allowed GENOMA to become, in a few years, one of the most qualified centres in molecular diagnostics field, offering a great wealth of technology and human resources, and providing a model of quality, professionalism and skills to imitate and export, a reference point for many national and foreign health structures, both private and public. Through the combination of its state-of-the-art technology leadership, experienced and dedicated personnel, commitment to superior customer service, and strategic partnerships, GENOMA is achieving its goal of creating a world class national laboratory with the best and broadest menu of genetic testing services.

Today GENOMA is the leader for combining infertility treatment and genetics for the delivery of important, pioneering, high quality medical treatment and patient care. GENOMA continues to be an organization not only where outstanding medical care is offered, but also one firmly dedicated to expanding its well-deserved reputation as a centre where scientific knowledge and innovation are created and highly valued, and where the latest reproductive and genetic innovations are transformed from theory into everyday practice.
