| Carver Laboratory for Molecular Diagnosis
|
| |
The
Carver Laboratory for Molecular Diagnosis is provides non-profit
genetic testing for rare eye diseases. Most of the diseases that the
lab studies are so rare that commercial tests would be unlikely to be
viable for the long term. As a result, many individuals affected with
these diseases and their families would have little access to
molecular information. Genes that are available for screening by the
Carver Laboratory have previously been extensively studied in the
research laboratories of Dr. Ed Stone and Dr. Val Sheffield. By
incorporating this research information into the design of the tests,
the laboratory is able to offer genetic tests that provide the most
clinically relevant information to patients and their families while
keeping the tests affordable. |
