Genomic Laboratory Hub

You are here: Home / Genomic Tests / Genomic Laboratory Hub

Genomic testing across the NHS is provided through a single national testing network, made up of seven Hubs. Patient samples from the East Midlands or East of England will be analysed within the East Midlands and East of England (EMEE) Genomic Laboratory Hub.

Our Hub is based in Cambridge and draws together the expertise of:

  • Cambridge University Hospitals
  • Nottingham University Hospitals
  • Leicester University Hospitals

The Hub will soon provide all genetic and genomic testing services for more than 30 NHS Trusts across the East of England and East Midlands. It will allow clinicians to access testing for more than 500 conditions. See our Jobs page for opportunities within the EMEE NHS Genomic Laboratory Hub.

Consistent, centralised tests –for everyone

Genetic tests carried out by the EMEE NHS Genomic Laboratory Hub will be conducted in line with two National Genomic Test Directories: One for cancer tests and one for rare disease tests.

These two directories specify which genomic tests are commissioned by the NHS in England, the technology by which they are available, the patients who are eligible to access various tests, and the healthcare professionals who can order them.

  • Genomics study identifies routes of transmission of coronavirus in care homes March 3, 2021
    Care homes are at high risk of experiencing outbreaks of COVID-19, the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2. Older people and those affected by heart disease, respiratory disease and type 2 diabetes – all of which increase with age – are at greatest risk of severe disease and even death, making the care home population especially vulnerable.

  • Q&A with Sharon Peacock, coronavirus variant hunter February 22, 2021
    The Conversation spoke to Professor Peacock about that day and what happened after. Q: When did you first get the idea to set up Cog-UK? And how was it formed? In late February 2020, it dawned on me that we were going to need genome sequencing capabilities across the UK for the novel coronavirus. It […]
