The group will be at ESHG 2015, which this year will be in Glasgow. We will present two posters: Sam will present our work just published on the genetics of mathematical abilities and Rob will show case his unpublished results describing the functional...
Today we welcome a new lab member: Dilsad Kilicoglu from Turkey. Dilsad is a Molecular Biology and Genetics student at Bogazici University in İstanbul and will spend the summer with us working on the functional characterization of dyslexia candidate genes. So we are...
Congratulations Monika Gostic for the award of a travel fellowship by the European Society for Fish Models in Biology and Medicine! Monika is using zebrafish to study the function of candidate genes for dyslexia. She will use the fellowship to visit Dr Patrick...
Last week there has been quite a bit of media covarage for our handednes work. We have not published anything new (yet!), but the very popular site IFLScience covered Silvia’s prsentation at Royal Society with a piece that got over 30,000 shares on Facebook....
We have inaugurated a new podcast series at the School of Medicine. Silvia discusses in this short video our research and tells you a bit about her career journey. Watch out for Monika’s guest appearance.
Our new paper on the genetics of maths abilities is now out in Genes Brain and Behaviour. We conducted the first replication study for the myosin-18B gene which was found to be associated with maths abilities through a GWAS study. The study was led by Kerry and Sam...
