NeuroDev: etiology and experience of neurodevelopmental disorders in Kenya and South Africa

2026-05-06

Abstract excerpt

The NeuroDev study, conducted in Kenya and South Africa, is a large-scale clinical, genetic, and epidemiologic characterization of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) on the African continent. NeuroDev assessments capture birth, demographic, and developmental history; cognitive and behavioral outcomes; and physical health variables. DNA samples are collected for exome sequencing and clinical genetic analysis. This...
