Research

For more than a decade, the Mayo Clinic Center for Individualized Medicine has developed and honed precision diagnostics based on each patient's unique genomic changes and biomarkers. Now, through research programs and collaborations as well as clinical studies and trials, the center is building on that expertise to find and create personalized treatments for patients with cancer, rare diseases, chronic conditions and more.

Mayo Clinic supports the advancement of individualized medicine across the field by offering laboratory services, resources and expertise to researchers worldwide, and by disseminating findings and knowledge through research publications.
