By Mara Dierssen,Rafael de la Torre Fornell

Down syndrome (DS) is the most typical instance of neurogenetic aneuploid ailment resulting in psychological retardation. regularly, DS effects from an additional replica of chromosome 21 (HSA21) generating deregulated gene expression in mind that offers increase to subnormal highbrow functioning. the subject of this quantity is of large curiosity for the neuroscience neighborhood, since it tackles the idea that of neurogenomics, that's, how the genome as an entire contributes to a neurodevelopmental cognitive problems, resembling DS, and hence to the advance, constitution and serve as of the anxious procedure.

This quantity of development in mind examine discusses comparative genomics, gene expression atlases of the mind, community genetics, engineered mouse types and functions to human and mouse behavioral and cognitive phenotypes. It brings jointly scientists of various backgrounds, by means of facilitating the combination of analysis directed at varied degrees of organic association, and through highlighting translational examine and the applying of the prevailing clinical wisdom to boost more desirable DS remedies and cures.
