Om föreläsningen (på engelska)

The main goal of Dr. Manzini’s research is to bridge the genetics and mechanisms of disease to identify genes that are essential for human cognition and to define the molecular mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental disorders focusing on autism and neuromuscular disorders. The Manzini lab combines human genetics with molecular, cellular, and behavioral approaches in murine and zebrafish models to link human genetics to neuronal cell biology, intracellular signaling, and behavior. Her recent work aims to identify molecular mechanisms that could underlie sex bias in autism and to develop novel precision medicine approaches for congenital neuromuscular disease.
