Summary
Birth defects are common and have an enormous impact on both the individual and their family. Birth defects are by definition the products of abnormal development of the embryo. Our research is aimed at identifying the normal mechanisms that usually prevail during development and the disturbances to those mechanisms that result in birth defects. These findings will lead to improved diagnostic, therapeutic and preventative options for families affected by birth defects
