Clinical Analysis and Genetics

The Clinical Analysis and Genetics clinical research support platform at ISABIAL performs complementary tests that provide access to biological samples useful for confirming or ruling out a diagnosis, detecting abnormalities, and obtaining information necessary to apply a specific treatment.

Since 2011, the Clinical Analysis and Genetics Unit has operated under a quality management system (QMS) certified according to the ISO 9001:2015 standard.
