Novel gene linked to neurodevelopmental disorders and epilepsy could improve diagnosis

Researchers from Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) have identified a novel gene associated with neurodevelopmental disorders and epilepsy. The study, published in the American Journal of Human Genetics, leveraged large data depositories, state-of-the-art computational techniques and community-based gene matching to identify this new gene, which is a critical early step in improving diagnosis and eventually developing new treatment methods.
