Personalizing Pediatric Care Through Innovative Diagnostics
The Center for Clinical Diagnostics at Nemours Children’s advances pediatric health care through innovative laboratory research and testing. We bridge clinical practice and research by developing and implementing specialized diagnostic assays to meet the unique needs of children.
Located in Delaware Valley, our team provides high-complexity testing focused on transplant immunology, gastroenterology, and autoimmune disorders. We use the latest technologies, including multiplexed immune assays, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and next-generation sequencing. Our results inform diagnosis, treatment, and condition management.
In addition to testing services, we collaborate with researchers, participate in clinical trials, and publish impactful findings so that kids everywhere can benefit.
Our work has led to new insights and assays for detecting problems like organ transplant rejection, graft-versus-host disease, viruses, and gut inflammation.
