Stimulus grant to fund whole-genome sequencing in children with autism
Date:9/30/2009

Now, Greenberg's lab will study living, active neurons to create a systematic map of these critical switches in the human genome, while the Children's hospital team searches for the relationship between these switches and autism.

Because Grand Opportunity funding requires that the grant money be spent within 18 months, the project will move rapidly. The project's ultimate goal is to relate different forms of clinical autism to variations in both DNA and gene activity, and to make this information available to all autism researchers.
