Arthur Lander, MD, PhD, University of California, Irvine, CA.
Award: $12,500
This funding is given in support of on-going research into the molecular genetic basis of Cornelia de Lange Syndrome and further development of a CdLS mouse model.
Antonie Kline, MD, Greater Baltimore Medical Center, Baltimore, MD.
Award: $12,500
This funding is given in support of continuing CdLS clinics for adolescents and adults and further investigation of the clinical manifestations of Cornelia de Lange Syndrome in this population.
Ian Krantz, MD, The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA.
Award: $12,500
