TITLE: Capture the cellular and molecular drivers of cortical development in DDX3X syndrome
ABSTRACT: In a new collaboration, the De Rubeis and Wu labs will study the cellular and circuitry mechanisms underlying DDX3X syndrome, a rare genetic condition associated with intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder. The researchers will explore how cortical projection neurons develop in a novel mouse model of DDX3X syndrome using a combination of whole-brain tracing of cortical projections, circuit mapping, and molecular profiling. This study aims at opening new horizons for understanding and treating DDX3X syndrome.
