Van Andel Institute and Children's Memorial Research Center of Chicago Form a Partnership to Facilitate Pediatric Research
Date:2/26/2008

., Medical Research Institute Council Endowed Chair for the President and Scientific Director of CMRC.

XenoBase is the result of five years of research and development in the lab of Craig P. Webb, Ph.D., Director of VARI's Program of Translational Medicine. The system can collect and analyze a wide range of molecular and conventional clinical data to aid researchers in identifying associations between diseases, biomarkers and treatment outcomes. "We are delighted to license this technology to CMRC and demonstrate its effectiveness in supporting different areas of pediatric translational research," said Webb. "We look forward to collaborative efforts through which improved diagnostic and therapeutic strategies can ultimately be introduced to the pediatric population."

The mission of Children's Memorial Research Center is to generate new knowledge leading to advancements in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases that affect the development of children through adolescence as well as adult disorders that derive from them. Our multidisciplinary teams of physicians, scientists, technicians, nurses and trainees are committed to making discoveries that will improve the lives of children and their families.

Established by Jay and Betty Van Andel in 1996, Van Andel Institute is an independent research organization dedicated to preserving, enhancing and expanding the frontiers of medical science, and to achieving excellence in education by probing fundamental issues of education and the learning process.
