Researchers have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) approach that accelerates the identification of genes that contribute to neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism spectrum disorder, ...

A sweeping genetic screen reveals how the brain is built and exposes a hidden gene behind a newly discovered childhood brain ...

By editing thousands of genes in mouse stem cells, the scientists identified a list of over 300 that are crucial for neural differentiation.

Researchers led by a team at Baylor College of Medicine have identified a novel neurodevelopmental disorder associated with mutations or deletions affecting a gene called PAX5. Their findings are ...

A seminal study has uncovered a new genetic cause of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). The discovery offers both closure and hope to potentially thousands of families worldwide who have long been ...

Researchers have identified how three novel genes cause neurodevelopmental disorders. Researchers now have a better sense of the genes' roles in human brain development and function and their ability ...

Brian Lee, PhD, associate professor of epidemiology at the Dornsife School of Public Health, received a 5-year National Institutes of Health (NIH) R01 grant of $4M to study possible links between ...

Background: Little is known about the extent to which neurodevelopmental trajectories in infancy predict a later diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Methods: We investigated the association ...
