Biography

Professor Lucy Osborne focuses on Molecular Genetics with a research emphasis on disease models and epigenetics. Her work involves gene regulation, genome analysis, and the use of mouse models to investigate neurodevelopmental disorders. By studying genetic variations such as deletions and duplications in human chromosome 7q11.23, her research aims to uncover the molecular basis of disorders that affect human cognition, behavior, and language. Through the application of various genetic analysis techniques on both mouse models and human subjects, she endeavors to create unique phenotypic profiles that elucidate the complex relationship between genetics and development. Additionally, her contributions extend to the field of Molecular Medicine and Human Genetics, pushing forward the understanding of genetic influences on neurodevelopmental conditions.
