The McCormick Genomic and Proteomic Center (MGPC) is a premier genomics research center based at The George Washington University Medical Center in Washington, D.C. Our mission is to discover, validate, and establish key molecular events in normal and cancer cells, and to contribute to global cancer genome research and education.

The center's laboratory focus is to harness the emerging, in-house genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic and bioinformatics knowledge to build new biologically relevant pathways. The MGPC is actively interacting with a number of principal investigators and providing scientific insights in many exciting projects, ranging from DNA-protein interaction interface to protein domain prediction and evolutionary conservation of epigenetic regulators to structural analysis of tyrosine kinases cancer genome.

The MGPC aims to provide a rigorous, collaborative research environment for use by GW's principal investigators, to expand the horizons of genomic and proteomic knowledge to open new avenues in basic and translational cancer research, and to train the next generation of bright minds in cancer genome research.
