Creating a phenotypic catalogue of synaptic vesicle cycling disorders [ 1/1/2021 - 12/31/2024 ]

Research Grant

Brief description Developmental disorders affect 2-5% of children. In order to understand how these mutations will likely affect neurological function in these individuals, and to develop a tailored care and treatment program, we must first understand how these mutations affect neuronal communication. This research program will identify the underlying cause of neurological dysfunction in a subset of these disorders (synaptic vesicle cycle disorders), affecting 1200-3000 children in Australia alone.
