We're so grateful for our incredible partnership with Illumina, Inc.. Thanks to Illumina's iHope Program, children at Hospital Infantil de las Californias and t...heir parents can receive clinical whole-genome sequencing performed by Illumina Clinical Services Laboratory. The program focuses on children in financial need who have an undiagnosed disease. This program helps families get the answers they need, regardless of their ability to pay, and we could not be more grateful to the big hearts at Illumina who make this life-saving work possible!
