Key outcomes
Dr. Boone and his team have now identified several novel disorders.
Genes of interest
AFF4 ANKRD11 BRD4 CREBBP EP300 HDAC8 KMT2A MAU2 NAA10 NIPBL RAD21 SMC1A SMC3 TAF1 TAF6 WAPL
Participate in research
Physicians may refer their patients with diagnoses of CdLS or other disorder of genome organization (variant in a gene encoding a genome-organizing protein) to Dr. Boone. Once study eligibility is confirmed, a research coordinator will reach out to the family to consent and enroll them.
Patient care
Patients and their families with CdLS (diagnosed or suspected) or a related condition (e.g. other cohesinopathy) can be seen by an expert multidisciplinary team in the Cornelia de Lange Syndrome and Related Disorders Clinic at Boston Children’s. Learn more about CdLS.
