Additionally, they typically do not have the same level of medical complexity as babies with cleft lip with or without cleft palate and spina bifida, who likely have a lot of medical needs and complications. (sciencedaily.com)
I enjoyed showcasing our targeted sequencing study of cleft lip, in which we used model systems in zebrafish and mice to functionally validate rare variants uncovered by sequencing known GWAS loci. (massgenomics.org)
