Title edit
The John and Marcia Carver Nonprofit Genetic Testing Laboratory
Description edit
Excerpted from the website:
- History of the Carver Laboratory
- In 1996 the Roy J. Carver Charitable Trust of Muscatine, Iowa, contributed $2 million to the University of Iowa to create the Carver Endowment for Molecular Ophthalmology. The Department of Ophthalmology of the Roy J. and Lucille A. Carver College of Medicine at the University of Iowa also contributed $1 million to this endowment. The availability of this permanent endowment made it possible for the Molecular Ophthalmology Laboratory to develop a research-based genetic testing unit, known as the Carver Laboratory for Ophthalmic Molecular Diagnosis. Since its inception, the laboratory has received over 30,000 samples from more than 15 countries worldwide. The availability of these samples has been critical to the success of our inherited eye disease research program, which to date has mapped and/or identified over 30 genes responsible for human disease.
