Epigenetic drug developmentto prevent pervasive developmental disorders

Research Project Outline

Pervasive developmental disorders (PDDs) are characterized by varying degrees of impairment in communication skills, social interactions, and restricted, repetitive and stereotyped patterns of behavior. The preventive measures to reduce the incidence or severity of any type of PDD are not known at this time. In this project, we will make mice models and iPS cells of PDDs, and try to develop the biological markers and therapeutics.
