Human Genetics
Welcome to the Human Genetics Division!
The Human Genetics division bridges basic research and clinical medicine.
Our research aims are
- to identify mutations leading to genetic diseases
- to understand the pathogenic mechanisms underlying genetic diseases
- to develop genetic therapies
Our research mainly focuses on ciliopathies, neurosensory diseases (including retinal dystrophies and hearing deficits) and brain malformations/mental retardations.
