Genetic contributions to visuospatial cognition in Williams syndrome: insights from two contrasting partial deletion patients

15 Jul 2014

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Williams syndrome (WS) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder arising from a hemizygotic deletion of approximately 27 genes on chromosome 7, at locus 7q11.23. WS is characterised by an uneven cognitive profile, with serious deficits in visuospatial tasks in comparison to relatively proficient performance in some other cognitive domains such as language and face processing. Individuals with partial...
