Innovation & Impact

Promoting a culture of knowledge and skill sharing and translating our findings to the clinic.

CGEM partners with multiple organisations to support our translational research. These close collaborations can lead to cutting-edge research being and actively implemented in a clinical setting more rapidly. We maintain a symbiotic relationship by the sharing of expertise and innovative research findings to ensure these organisations, and CGEM, remain at the forefront of technological and scientific excellence.

Vision

Our mission is to identify molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying normal human development and disease, including cancer, and translate these findings for clinical benefit.

Strategy

In order to maximise the impact of our work on human health we aim, where appropriate, to:

Widely disseminate scientific discoveries through open access publishing and data sharing
Promote a culture of translation at the Institute of Genetics and Cancer supported by appropriate events and training
Collaborate with industrial and NHS partners
Identify, develop and, where appropriate, partner scientific discovery with potential for translation
Licence our intellectual property in an exclusive or non-exclusive manner
Form spin out companies
