Welcome to The Centre National de Génotypage The CNG is situated
at the Génopole site in Evry, about 30 km south of Paris, where
it has the benefit of a particularly favourable research
environment through links with other laboratories on the same
site: a campus for genomics research and biotechnology in
France. History of the CNG The Centre National de Génotypage
(CNG) was created as a GIP (Public Interest Group) by the French
Ministry of Research and New Technology. In October 1998, the
CNG took over the genomic activities of the Généthon, which
pioneered genetic studies in France with the support of the
French Muscular Dystrophy Association. In 2002, the CNG became
part of a new GIP, the Consortium National de Recherche en
Génomique or CNRG. In addition to the Ministry, the members of
the GIP CNRG are the INSERM (Institut National de la Santé et de
la Recherche Médicale), CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche
Scientifique), INRA (Institut National de Institut National de
la Recherche Agronomique), the CEA
