Massachusetts General Hospital
Massachusetts General Hospital was established to provide care to Boston’s sick, regardless of socioeconomic status, and became the first teaching hospital of Harvard University’s new medical school. We have remained at the forefront of medicine by fostering a culture of collaboration and education, pushing the boundaries of medical research, and maintaining an unwavering commitment to the diverse community we were created to serve.
Center for Genomic Medicine
The Massachusetts General Hospital Center for Genomic Medicine (CGM) is leading an effort to complete the genomic medicine cycle – from genetic discoveries to mechanism to the clinic – by assessing where genomic medicine will have the greatest impact on human health, and by driving efforts to implement genomic medicine in those areas, at MGH and beyond.
