We use detailed phenotypic characterization and a range of genome analysis tools to discover pathogenic variants that cause rare developmental and metabolic syndromes. We then carry out follow up experiments to support or rule out candidate genes. With my collaborators, we have discovered genes that cause Adams-Oliver syndrome, hereditary spastic paraplegia, ischiospinal dysostosis, Jeune syndrome, and more.
