Dr. Jason Heaney presented a great talk on the Baylor CPMM at the 2024 Society for Inherited Metabolic Disorders as part of a session highlighting the work of the precision modeling centers at Baylor, JAX and UAB.
April 2024
Congratulations to Dr. Denise Lanza and the Baylor CPMM mouse team for their new publication in Genesis!
A study by Dr. Xueyang Pan, a postdoctoral fellow in the Hugo Bellen laboratory, and the Baylor CPMM fly team that links FRYL gene variants to a new neurological disorder that exhibits developmental delay, intellectual disability, and dysmorphic features was published in the April issue of the American Journal of Human Genetics.
March 2024
Nathalie Aceves (graduate student in the Burrage laboratory) presented her work on a new congenital NAD deficiency disorder at the 2024 TAGC meeting in Washington, D.C. Congratulations on your presentation and your scholarship award, Nathalie!
Dr. Lindsay Burrage and Jill Mokry presented a poster about the Baylor CPMM at the 2024 American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics annual meeting in Toronto, Canada.
