Inova Health System

Inova Translational Medicine Institute (ITMI) is a not-for-profit research institute that applies genomic and clinical information from individuals to develop innovative methods for personalized healthcare. ITMI is part of Inova Center for Personalized Health (ICPH), which connects researchers, clinicians, and consumers to integrate genomic research for patient care, prevention, and wellness. This approach enables individuals to live longer and transforms healthcare from reactive to predictive. Research studies at ITMI generate a large genomic and clinical data set that can be used by researchers in a variety of fields, from computational biology to psychology, and biomedical research applications. ITMI’s utilizes genomic information from an individual to understand the onset of disease, leading to the implementation of preventative medicine, and to increase successful outcomes while reducing adverse reactions to treatment.
