Genetic Sequencing

RG's Patient Advocacy Team coordinates clinical whole exome (WES) and whole genome sequencing (WGS), collectively called Next Generation Sequencing, for children and adults affected by rare or undiagnosed genetic illnesses. We can work with your referring physician to coordinate sequencing, and support the planning and return of results for you. Sequencing opportunities include free philanthropic sequencing for children in the iHope program with Illumina, as well as free sequencing for adults with Dante Labs. We can also recommend other sequencing labs that take insurance coverage. Please note, your physician should determine if next generation sequencing is needed, and recommend the testing for you.
