Wellcome Sanger Institute

We are tackling some of the most difficult challenges in genomic research. This demands science at scale; a visionary and creative approach to research that pushes the boundaries of our understanding in ever new and exciting ways.

The Wellcome Sanger Institute is a world leader in genome research that delivers insights into human and pathogen biology that change science and medicine through:

• Being an ‘ideas factory’; conceiving new questions to address through genomics and biological science at scale.
• Driving genomics technology development and implementation.
• Innovating genomic data aggregation and analysis.
• Large-scale DNA sequence and phenotype data production from humans, pathogens and cells.
• Addressing scientific questions underpinning health issues of low and middle income countries.
• Training scientists and clinicians in genome sciences.
• Leading global research initiatives with international partners.
• Being at the centre of a collaborative network of science.
