At 10 months old, my daughter Gabrielle had missed key milestones for gross motor, fine motor, social and communication skills. Following two seizures, Gabrielle had an MRI that showed brain ...

Butterfly eyespot development represents a paradigm of how genetic regulation and developmental processes orchestrate complex morphological patterns. Eyespots are not only visually striking but also ...

Thousands of children with severe developmental disorders have benefited from more targeted treatments and support with genetic insights from the large-scale Deciphering Developmental Disorders (DDD) ...

Non-coding regions of DNA could hold the key to diagnosing developmental disorders in children, new research suggests. The study, by researchers at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, the Wellcome Centre ...

Researchers have shown that developmental abnormalities, including those that lead to pregnancy loss, are controlled by the genetics of the fetus and placenta -- and not the mother's intrauterine ...

Developmental biologist Dr. Alexandra Joyner is preparing to retire from MSK after an illustrious career. An overarching question she has pursued for 30 years is: How does the cerebellum get its folds ...

Genetics is just one of several factors thought to influence personality disorder development. Life experiences, family dynamics, coping mechanisms, and social learning may all be contributing factors ...

New research by scientists at Oxford Brookes University has identified specific genes which could provide vital information about the biology of developmental coordination disorder (DCD), also known ...
