Genetic study of unusual disease in non-US populations

This study looks for genetic causes of rare or unusual disease patterns in people living outside the United States. If you or a family member has a condition that seems to run in the family, started very early, or has an unusual form, you may be asked to provide a DNA sample and medical history.

Find answers for undiagnosed medical conditions using genetic testing

This study helps look for causes of health problems when no one has been able to give a diagnosis. It tests and shares medical and genetic information (with privacy protections) so researchers can better match findings to possible causes.

Find genetic answers for rare, possibly inherited conditions

This trial looks for gene changes that may explain rare conditions, even when the diagnosis is not fully understood. It may help families who have a rare condition or who are related to someone with one.

Genetic testing study for people linked to other NIH research

This study collects and sequences (reads) your DNA to help researchers understand health and disease. You may be invited because you are connected to another NIH study, and you must agree to testing, sample storage, and sharing de-identified genetic data for future research.

Genetic testing study to find causes of rare disorders

This study uses genome (DNA) sequencing to look for the genetic cause of rare disorders, especially when the cause is unknown. It may help some families better understand what is driving the condition, using genetic information from the affected person and often their parents.
