TGen Fashions a Future Without Cancer
Earlier Detection. Smarter Treatments. Better Outcomes
TGen, the Translational Genomics Research Institute, part of City of Hope, is an Arizona-based, nonprofit medical research institute dedicated to conducting groundbreaking research with life-changing results. We work to unravel the genetic components of common and complex diseases, including cancer, neurological disorders, infectious disease, and rare childhood disorders. By identifying treatment options in this manner, we believe medicine becomes more rational, more precise and, well, more personal.
