Sex chromosome instability in disorders of development [ 2014 - 2016 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Paul Kalitsis (Principal investigator) ,  Dr Jeffrey Mann

Brief description Chromosomes must be copied and distributed faultlessly into the newly dividing cells for normal development to occur. Factors that affect this process are often associated with health problems such as birth disorders, cancer, premature aging and infertility. This project plans to identify genetic factors that compromise the faithful transmission of chromosomes from cell to cell. Results gained from this project will greatly assist in the diagnosis of chromosome-related disorders.
