About Children's Minnesota: Children's Minnesota is one of the largest pediatric health systems in the United States and the only health system in Minnesota to provide care exclusively to children, from before birth through young adulthood. An independent and not-for-profit system since 1924, Children's Minnesota is one system serving kids throughout the Upper Midwest at two free-standing hospitals, nine primary care clinics, multiple specialty clinics and seven rehabilitation sites. As The Kids Experts in our region, Children's Minnesota is regularly ranked by U.News & World Report as a top children's hospital.

Children's Minnesota Genetics/Genomics Department is the only clinical genetics/genomics program in Minnesota exclusively dedicated to the diagnosis and clinical care of pediatric patients and childhood conditions. Our department consists of a talented team of four geneticists, fourteen genetic counselors, three genetic counseling assistants, one clinic nurse, one metabolic dietitian, and two pharmacogenomics pharmacists. Our comprehensive enterprise-wide practice supports end-to-end genetics services and integrates genetic counselors into critical specialty services such as hematology/oncology, cardiology, neonatology, immunology, neurology, and pulmonology.

With the growing impact and accessibility of genomic testing, we are expanding our scope of personalized care more broadly into pediatric and adolescent care with the implementation of a nationally recognized pediatric pharmacogenomics program.

Provide outpatient clinical care and inpatient consultations at Children's Minnesota's Minneapolis and St. If interested, opportunities to participate in clinical and research projects evaluating our genetics and precision health programs, as well as clinical teaching of medical students, residents, and genetic counseling students.
