The Clemson University Genomics Institute (CUGI) is a state of the art research/service facility located in the Upstate region of South Carolina, United States, at Clemson University. CUGI is involved in the development and distribution of genomic tools and services for the life science community. The Institute also performs research projects that focus on the discovery and functional analysis of important genes and genomic regions from plants, animals, microbes and humans using the specialized tools of genomics and proteomics. The application of these technologies to agriculture, human health and the environment will ensure continued improvement in crop productivity, environmental systems, and health care to meet the future needs of an ever-growing world population.

Areas of Expertise

CUGI has six main areas of expertise that provide non-profit, cost- recovery services as well as support for educational efforts, and research projects with affiliated research faculty and off campus groups.
