NHS Genomic Medicine Service
The NHS South East Genomic Laboratory Hub (SE GLH) is one of seven Genomic Lab Hubs delivering genetic and genomic testing in accordance with the National Genomic Test Directory. Aligned with the SE GLH is the South East Genomic Medicine Service Alliance (SE GMSA) which supports the embedding of genomics in to mainstream care and improving care for our patients. Together the SE GLH and SE GMSA deliver the NHS Genomic Medicine Service for the South East region. The NHS Trusts that make up the SE GLH and SE GMSA, together with NHS England are responsible as joint controllers under data protection legislation for the processing of personal data to provide the NHS Genomic Medicine Service. To find out more on how we are using personal data to provide genomic testing, view the NHS Genomic Medicine Service national privacy notice.
