Abstract excerpt
Genetic architecture predisposes regions of the human genome to copy-number variants, which confer substantial disease risk, most prominently towards neurodevelopmental disorders. These variants typically contain multiple genes and are often associated with extensive pleiotropy and variable phenotypic expressivity. Despite the expansion of the fidelity of CNV detection, and the study of such lesions at the...
