@iddrc-washu.bsky.social + The McDonnell Genome Institute @washumedicine.bsky.social secure a $12M NIH grant to form the Scalable Mouse Assay Center. Led by Joseph Dougherty - WU-SMAC will curate models of neurodevelopmental/psychiatric disorders known to be caused by a single gene mutation.
$12 million grant funds studies of role of genes in autism, similar diagnoses
Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis received a $12 million National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant to deepen understanding of autism and other neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders that are caused by a single gene mutation.

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Researchers from the Institute of Molecular Biology of Barcelona, ​​(IBMB) – Spanish research council (CSIC) have identified the molecular mechanisms through which the Zika virus causes neurodevelopmental disorders of the nervous system of the foetus, such as congenital microcephaly syndrome. The results of the study, published in Cell Stem Cell, reveal that the viral…
