The Precision Genomics Collaboratory coalesces genetic and genomic units all over Duke University and the Duke Health System.
Duke Molecular Physiology Institute
DMPI produces integrated multi-omics and physiologic profiles of chronic human diseases, and uses such profiles to develop new disease detection strategies, novel therapies, and insights into disease mechanisms.
Center for Advanced Genomic Technologies
CAGT has assembled a team of world-leading engineers, scientists and physicians to integrate these technologies to unravel disease biology and discover new drug targets. By working together, we will catalyze a more robust biotechnology enterprise.
Center for Genomic and Computational Biology
GCB is an interdisciplinary center where faculty across Duke’s campus collaborate to study complex problems in genomic and computational biology, train researchers and develop genomic technologies. GCB brings together scientists, engineers, physicians and sociologists passionate about interdisciplinary research to explore big questions in genomics and computational biology.
Center for Statistical Genetics and Genomics
Bridging gaps, StatGen optimizes collaborations by building on research interests of faculty, investigators and students spanning Duke University, including departments, centers and institutes affiliated with the Duke University School of Medicine, Trinity College of Arts & Sciences and Pratt School of Engineering.
Center for Precision Health
The Duke Center for Precision Health (CPH) is a collaborative effort between CTSI and the Precision Genomics Collaboratory (PGC) that works to harness the power of genomic, biomarker, and health data to transform patient care and population health. CPH fuels clinical, translational, and basic science to serve as a foundational network for coalescing communities of Duke scientists. The center aims to expand clinical genetics, conduct clinically relevant translational research, perform cutting-edge implementation science, engage with and build trust in the community, and educate the workforce of tomorrow.
Duke Microbiome Center
DMC was established to address the rapidly expanding interest among the public and scientific community in the pervasive roles of microbial communities in human health, the environment, and biotechnology. Their mission is to cultivate and support microbiome science at Duke University. They do so by providing an intellectual and educational environment that fosters collaboration and discovery, and by creating and supporting necessary resources at Duke University for research in the microbiome sciences.
Division of Integrative Genomics, Department of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics
The Division of Integrative Genomics promotes innovative and high-impact genomic research and education by providing a robust and diverse scientific environment through partnership, integrity, and vision.

Adult Cardiovascular Genetics Clinic
Duke's adult cardiovascular genetics clinic is led by nationally recognized experts who study the role genes play in heart disease. Our cardiologists diagnose and manage inherited heart disease, including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, long QT syndrome, and Brugada syndrome. They work closely with genetic counselors who are specially trained to offer genetic testing and counseling for inherited heart diseases and vascular diseases. Their combined expertise ensures you and your family members receive the best counseling and medical care available.

Clinical Cancer Genetics
Duke’s hereditary cancer experts offer genetic testing and genetic counseling to people diagnosed with cancer, as well as people who may be at risk of developing cancer. Genetic counselors work closely with oncologists who are trained to diagnose and treat hereditary cancers, comprising five to 10 percent of all cancers. Genetic counseling can help guide treatment. Experts can clarify risks and offer expert counseling. Counselors help patients make informed decisions about treatment options and lifestyle changes.
