The Wellcome Sanger Institute is a genomics research institution based in Hinxton, East of England. It generates and analyzes genomic data at a scale not easily achieved elsewhere, applying genomic technologies to deepen understanding of biology and health through genome sequencing. Its work targets projects that go beyond what many other organizations can tackle, harnessing information contained in DNA to advance science and health. Its work serves researchers and healthcare scientists who rely on genomic insights to study biology and disease and to inform health improvements. In June 2026, it announced a collaboration with Google.org and Google DeepMind to generate large-scale genomic datasets and support AI-driven discoveries.
