When public policy, private research, and next-gen tech combine, great things happen here in New Jersey.

Earlier this year, New Jersey Economic Development Authority and Coriell Institute for Medical Research partnered to create a new Strategic Innovation Center (SIC) in – fully equipped with state-of-the-art incubator and laboratory spaces for emerging biotech companies.

This SIC joins a network of others strategically located throughout the state, designed to drive regional economic growth and medical and other innovations.

Sanfilippo syndrome type B is a rare metabolic disorder that leads to a build up of carbohydrates in children's cells and damage to organs. Based on numerous samples from Coriell’s NIGMS Human Genetic Cell Repository biobank, Elizabeth Neufeld and her lab at UCLA published a series of papers from 1996 through 2009 detailing the basis of Sanfilippo syndrome type B and the underlying mutations of the disease.

This research has led to the possibility that new drugs created for Alzheimer’s disease could present an effective therapy for this disorder as well.

Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome, a rare genetic metabolic disorder that affects mostly boys, causes brain and behavior problems, severe arthritis, and poor muscle control. One of the major breakthroughs in Lesh-Nyhan syndrome research came in 1989 when researchers led by Richard A Gibbs, Ph.D. made a discovery based on samples they ordered from the NIGMS Human Genetic Cell Repository at the Coriell Institute for Medical Research.
