Comprehensive whole genome sequence analyses yields novel genetic and structural insights for Intellectual Disability

Abstract Background Intellectual Disability (ID) is among the most common global disorders, yet etiology is unknown in ~30% of patients despite clinical assessment. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) is able to interrogate the entire genome, providing potential to diagnose idiopathic patients. Methods We...
