Dr. Rowena Ng, Ph.D is looking for participants for a new research study.
Dr. Ng’s research team is completing a retrospective study that involves reviewing participants’ past neuropsychological or psychological evaluations to determine the cognitive developmental pattern associated with KAT6B disorders. Currently, this area is not well published, and therefore determining appropriate early treatments can be challenging. These results will allow us to better understand the specific cognitive strengths/weaknesses seen among this syndrome and the differences found with the different gene variants, which in turn can inform more targeted interventions in early childhood.
If you are interested, please email Dr. Ng and she will follow-up with you with further instructions. This will largely involve you sending any of your child’s previously completed neuropsychological or psychological evaluation reports so they can compile cognitive data across those affected by KAT6B mutation. Dr. Ng is happy to answer any questions you may have.
