UCGS Introduces the Ataxia Exome Panel

The University of Chicago Genetic Services is a leader in providing clinical genetic testing and we are pleased to introduce our Ataxia Exome Panel to our menu of exome sequencing tests.

Ataxias are a heterogeneous group of neurological disorders affecting individuals of all age groups and are characterized by the incoordination of voluntary movements.  Features can include cerebellar dysfunction involving disturbance of stance, gait, eye movements, muscle tone, skilled movements and speech.

New reduced pricing for many of our tests!

In a competitive market, we know that our clients have  many options for molecular genetic testing.  We have recently reduced the cost of testing for many of our Sanger Sequencing tests.  We are pleased to offer our clients the same high quality service at a lower cost.  Please visit our website www.dnatesting.uchicago.edu for comprehensive information on all our tests including prices, CPT codes, turnaround times and specimen requirements.
