The center, described as the first of its kind in the Intermountain West region of the United States, provides state-of-the-art technology and rapid whole genome sequencing to quickly identify genetic causes of hard-to-diagnose complex and rare diseases that affect infants and children.

\u201cThe Primary Children\u2019s Center for Personalized Medicine is founded on our belief that every child deserves the most advanced care possible,\u201d says Dustin Lipson, administrator of Intermountain Primary Children\u2019s Hospital. \u201cThis center has been made possible because of the technologies of Intermountain Precision Genomics, and the synergies created by the open, collaborative environment between Primary Children\u2019s Hospital and University of Utah Health.\u201d The center will leverage clinical, familial and genetic data stored at Intermountain Healthcare and University of Utah Health. By tapping into these vast information resources and decades of research, the participating organizations will offer next-generation care to children through precision diagnosis and tailored treatments\u2014including gene therapies as well as stem cell, immunologic and regenerative medicine. \u201cOur partnership affords us a unique community of doctors and researchers with unmatched knowledge and expertise to continue to discover and develop new cures,\u201d contend Intermountain executives. \u201cNo other place can connect clinical, genetic and familial information like the Primary Children's Center for Personalized Medicine.\u201d According to Intermountain, Primary Children\u2019s is one of only six U.S. hospitals to provide gene therapy for spinal muscular atrophy\u2014one of the most common childhood genetic conditions\u2014and clinical trials are testing gene therapy treatments for Duchenne\u2019s Muscular Dystrophy, Adrenoleukodystrophy, as well as other serious diseases. \u201cThe Primary Children\u2019s Center for Personalized Medicine is poised to become one of the most genetically informed centers in the world,\u201d says Lincoln Nadauld, MD, chief of Intermountain Precision Genomics. \u201cThe partnership will ensure that children receive the most cutting-edge care available anywhere.\u201d","saveContent":"A new Center for Personalized Medicine, located at Intermountain Primary Children\u2019s Hospital in Salt Lake City, will deliver targeted therapies to critically ill kids, based on their genetic makeup.
