Research Information:
I study how the brain develops and what goes wrong at the genetic and molecular level in children with neurodevelopmental disorders, such as autism. My research focuses on how changes in DNA packaging and gene regulation (known as epigenetics) can disrupt brain development. By combining experiments in brain cells and mouse models with cutting-edge genetic technologies, we aim to uncover the root causes of these conditions and identify new targets for therapy.
