Research Objective We propose to apply scalable platforms for the characterization of CNVs and genes coupled with detailed characterizations of neurodevelopment of the 4 major CNV loci in model systems…
Research Objective Neuropsychiatric disorders correlate to impaired metabolism, though understudied. We will describe how metabolism impacts disorders etiology and identify new, tractable therapeutic strategies. Impact We will uncover metabolic drivers…
Research Objective Chromosomal microdeletion syndromes result in severe neuropsychiatric syndromes and lack therapy. This proposal will define critical genomic regions needed to generate new tools for functional rescue. Impact This…
Research Objective Our objective is to enable scalable genetic screening to study how different cell types and epigenetic networks are impacted by risk genes implicated in human psychiatric disorders. Impact…
Research Objective This project will interrogate interactions, distribution, and function of high-confidence neuropsychiatric disorder risk proteins, and identify convergent pathobiology of patient genetic variants. Impact Datasets and stem cell resources…
Research Objective We will uncover pathways through which ASD mutations cause disease and close the gap from disease research to therapeutic testing using organoids, primary human neurons, machine learning and…
Research Objective We provide mechanistic insight into idiopathic Intellectual Disability (ID) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) based on aberrant redox-mediated posttranslational modifications related to air pollution Impact How air pollution…
Research Objective We will build a foundational model and experimental platform to catalog all genes that promote and protect against PAH, with the potential to extend to many other developmental…
Research Objective We will describe, for the first time, human muscle satellite cell, myofiber and immune cell dynamics due to dystrophin deficiency and AAV gene therapy in human muscle at…
Research Objective This project will identify mechanisms by which immune cells regulate human brain development, and use stem cell derived models to identify pathological changes induced by congenital virus infection.…
