The Division of Pediatric Genetics and Metabolism will continue to participate in clinical research in genetic basis of inherited disorders. Current and ongoing activities include development of new molecular techniques for use in newborn screening, clinical application of a protocol to evaluate an approach to the diagnostic evaluation of individuals with nonsyndromic cognitive impairment, and investigation of the underlying genetic causes of vertebral anomalies and idiopathic scoliosis.
