Neurodevelopmental disorders

Neurodevelopmental disorders edited by Helen Tager-Flusberg.

"Until recently, genetic, neuroanatomical, and psychological investigations on neurodevelopmental disorders were carried out independently. Now, tremendous advances across all disciplines have brought us toward a new scientific frontier: the integration of molecular genetics with a developmenta...
