For neuro disorders like Autism, Attention Deficit, and Hyperactivity, causes and cures have largely remained a mystery. Yet, promising work in Stanford Psychiatry’s BRIDGE Lab is going after answers in the very nucleus of our cells, our genes, the infinitesimal carriers of information that determine the traits of all living things. Dr. Tamar Green, with help from participating families, is scanning the brains of kids with neuro conditions, mapping their genetic pathways to recognize, understand, and eventually intervene in disease-causing mutations. This intricate and microscopic research, sometimes involving more than 30-thousand genes in a single brain cell, is hoped to yield big and wide-raging benefits for treatments and, someday, cures.More InformationAbout Dr. Tamar Green: https://med.stanford.edu/profiles/tamar-greenThe Brain Imaging, Development, and Genetics (BRIDGE) Lab: https://med.stanford.edu/bridge-lab.htmlResearch Participation: https://med.stanford.edu/bridge-lab/for-families-and-participants.htmlResearch Support: https://my.supportlpch.org/give/489426/#!/donation/checkout
