Center for Inherited Disease Research
The Center for Inherited Disease Research (CIDR) is a centralized facility
that provides genotyping and statistical genetics services for
investigators seeking to identify genes that contribute to human disease.
CIDR concentrates primarily on multifactorial hereditary disease although
analysis of single gene disorders can also be accommodated. CIDR is
available to all investigators through competitive peer review by a
chartered CIDR Access Committee (CAC). CIDR offers
a variety of services to meet the needs of investigators.
