American journal of medical genetics. Part A - 1 Nov 2013

Zanni Ginevra, Opitz John M

Abstract excerpt

Dedication: with highest respect and affection to Prof. Giovanni Neri on the eve of his official administrative retirement as Chair of the Institute of Medical Genetics of the Università Cattolica of Rome for leadership in medical genetics and medical science and friendship for decades.
