The Laboratory of Cytomolecular Genetics (CMG) is affiliated with the University of Helsinki and Helsinki University Central Hospital. The core activities are:

  • Cancer research in collaboration with various national and international establishments and institutions
  • Nationwide cytogenetic and molecular genetic diagnostics in genetic and cancerous diseases

The Head of the CMG Laboratory is Prof. Sakari Knuutila (Ph.D.).

The CMG group's research projects make use of several techniques: conventional cytogenetics, in situ hybridizations (FISH, M-FISH, CISH), combined immunophenotyping and genotyping (the MAC methodology), comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), cDNA and tissue arrays, and other molecular genetic techniques, e.g. Southern blotting, standard and real-time PCR.
