The Division of Medical Genetics and Genomics is dedicated to delivering comprehensive, compassionate, and innovative care to individuals and families affected by rare genetic and metabolic conditions. Under the leadership of Dr. Neena Champaigne, our collaborative team of clinical geneticists, biochemical geneticists, genetic counselors, a metabolic dietitian, and support staff provides expert care across the lifespan—from newborns to adults. We are committed to transforming uncertainty into understanding through personalized, family-centered services and an unwavering dedication to clinical excellence, education, and discovery.
Our wide range of services, delivered in both inpatient and outpatient settings, includes diagnostic evaluations and management of complex genetic and metabolic conditions. We participate in multidisciplinary specialty clinics, ensuring coordinated care with primary care providers and other medical specialists. Additionally, we offer newborn screening follow-up and a rapid genome sequencing program for critically ill children to ensure timely and accurate diagnoses. Our commitment to advancing medical knowledge is reflected in our cutting-edge clinical trials and collaborative research initiatives, striving to improve outcomes and treatment options for our patients.
Education is central to our mission. We provide training to the next generation of health care providers—medical students, residents, fellows, and genetic counseling students. Our faculty are actively engaged in curriculum development, mentorship, and national efforts to advance medical genetics education and improve access to genetic services.
Through innovation, service, and a passion for discovery, the Division of Medical Genetics and Genomics at MUSC is empowering patients, advancing genetics, and inspiring the future.
