Our NIH-funded lab within the Division of Genetics and Genomics at Boston Children's Hospital aims to unravel the genetic basis of pediatric attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Our multidisciplinary studies work directly with families for clinical evaluations and genomic sequencing to identify the genetic factors contributing to these conditions. Our research involves a wide range of projects that can be tailored to your specific interests, from analyzing large datasets to in vitro and in vivo modeling of gene function and variant effects using CRISPR, molecular and sequencing-based approaches. The duration of your project will depend on your goals and availability, but you can expect to be involved in your research project for at least six months.


Bibliographic
selected publications
Publications listed below are automatically derived from MEDLINE/PubMed and other sources, which might result in incorrect or missing publications. Faculty can login to make corrections and additions.
Newest   |   Oldest   |   Most Cited   |   Most Discussed   |   Timeline   |   Field Summary   |   Plain Text
PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
