- Overview
-
One of the most daunting problems of modern biology is to determine how a genome consisting of only ~30,000 genes drives the development of one of the most complex of organ systems – the mammalian brain. Most of the time – amazingly – the brain develops perfectly. When cells do not follow the proper developmental pathways, it leads to disorders of the developing central nervous system (CNS). These developmental brain disorders can have a clear genetic basis (e.g. forms of mental retardation and lissencephaly) or a far more complex etiology that involves multiple genes and environmental factors (e.g. autism, attention deficit disorder and schizophrenia).
The lab studies both single gene and more complex developmental disorders of the CNS. The research integrates the power of genomics, informatics and the mouse as an experimental model system to drive discovery about normal and abnormal brain development and to identify new therapies and interventions to improve outcomes for affected children.

Gene-environment interactions in cerebellar development and function: insights into the origins of complex brain disorders
Fetal and perinatal events such as growth restriction and extreme prematurity exert a system-wide effect and falls under the framework of the developmental origins of health and disease. Our work will identify key transcriptomic and epigenomic changes that will suggest targets for intervention. We have used this approach with IVH and our initial work with IUGR. With the IUGR, we saw that the cerebellar epigenome had alterations in methylation. Treatment of the IUGR mice with a methyl-donor rich diet ameliorated the cerebellar phenotype and function of the IUGR pups, as well as altered the epigenome.Mouse models for understanding neurodevelopmental disorders and interventions
We have 4 projects at various stages that have been designed to examine neurodevelopmental disorders: the loss of Purkinje cells in autism (one of the few documented neuroanatomic hallmarks of autism), a sequelae of extreme prematurity, intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH), and more recently, a mouse model for intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) which is associated with adverse outcomes in humans; and a mouse model for brain insults coupled with inflammatory challenges that are risk factors in prematurity.Novel genes involved in cerebellar development: discovery & validation
We use two large databases that we have built (www.cbgrits.org) or contributed to (fantom.gsc.riken.jp) that have painted a relatively complete transcriptome landscape of the cerebellum over developmental time and discover new genes and their relationship to other genes and gene pathways. We will validate the role of these genes in cerebellar development using techniques such as siRNA knockdown, genetically engineered knockouts and experimental chimeras.Current Projects
My focus is on the cerebellum, a brain region involved in numerous levels of basic and higher function, and associated with developmental and behavioural disorders (eg, autism, ADHD, schizophrenia). My strength is in approaching neurodevelopment through the lens of genetics to (i) discover and validate genes involved in cerebellar development; (ii) create mouse models of perturbed cerebellar function to identify the earliest diagnostic signs of the disorder and develop evidence-based interventions; and (iii) understand the role of complex genetics, such as gene-environment interactions, in cerebellar development.Honours & AwardsCanadian Research Chair in Developmental Neurogenetics Tier 1, 2007 - 2021
