 Mentoring Available: 10/03/11, Expires: 09/02/13 Our lab is interested in studying the normal prenatal development of human brain, and the genes that regulate this process. Abnormalities of the genes regulating human brain development cause a number of neurological disorders including intellectual disability, autism, epilepsy, and cerebral palsy, and we study genetic causes of these conditions directly. Typical projects involve analysis of DNA sequence from patients with genetic disorders, some of whom we see in our clinic, or studies in animal models of human brain development. Discovery of Novel CNVs Causing a Neuronal Migration Defect Summer, 05/25/09 - 08/28/09 The cerebrospinal fluid controls proliferation and maintenance of embryonic and adult neural stem cells Summer, 05/26/08 - 09/05/08 Exploring the Role of CC2D1A in NF-kB Signaling to Elucidate the Etiology of Non-Syndromic Intellectual Disability (NSID) Summer, 06/21/10 - 08/06/10 The alternately transcribed gene GPR56 as a critical regulator of cortical development Summer, 02/01/06 - 09/05/06
