One Gene Down, Brain Function Affected: Insights into Neurodevelopmental Disorders
Haploinsufficient genes show how losing one gene copy can affect brain development, increasing risk for neurodevelopmental disorders and behaviour changes.

Science Writer & Researcher
Dr. Ghanwa Imran is a science writer and researcher specializing in the genetics of neurodevelopment. With a focus on how molecular changes influence brain function, she explores complex mechanisms like haploinsufficiency and their role in conditions such as autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disabilities. Through her writing, Dr. Imran aims to bridge the gap between genetic research and clinical application, highlighting the potential for future gene therapies and early interventions.
