Introduction

IBGE has transformed biomedical research from bench-top to the bedside for addressing shadowed issues in the healthcare sector at national and international level. The institute is fully equipped with state-of-the-art latest technologies to conduct reasonably wholesome genetics, molecular biology and biomedical deliverable R&D.

In the growing body of biomedical and genetic services at IBGE, there are more than one hundred and fifty genetic and molecular biology-based health services for disease diagnosis, prognosis, perdition, recurrence, therapeutics and organ and bone-marrow transplantation. And there is an ongoing accumulation of R&D deliverables in the services fleet to meet almost every healthcare concern in the country and across.

Goal

To ensure quality deliverability & adaptation of output through institutional R&D in the healthcare, pharma, academics, science and technology policy making sectors.

Maximize the adaptation of scientific and technical achievements by bridging the biomedical, genetics, molecular biology, healthcare and pharma industry sectors.

Present Work

The classified and exclusively established range of genetic and molecular biology services at IBGE include:

  • HLA Typing
  • DNA forensics & human identification
  • Regenerative Medicine
  • Rare genetic diseases and syndromes
  • Classical cytogenetics and chromosomal breakage analysis
