Neurology
Genetic studies can help to correctly diagnose patients with hereditary neurological diseases such as movement disorders, neuromuscular disorders, intellectual disability or epilepsy, among others.

Dementia I: 2 studies
Dementia is a general term that describes a wide range of symptoms associated with the decline of memory and other cognitive abilities, which can impair a person’s ability to perform daily activities. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common primary form of dementia, accounting for 60–80% of cases. The proposed targeted exome test analyzes genes associated with Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia. For frontotemporal dementia, an expansion in the C9orf72 gene has been described that is not detectable through exome sequencing; therefore, we offer a specific test for this genetic alteration.

Neurodevelopmental Disorders I: 5 Studies
Neurodevelopmental disorders encompass a group of conditions that affect brain and cognitive development from an early age. We offer assessments for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability, both of which are cognitive disorders with heterogeneous, complex, and multifactorial origins that may occur in isolation or as part of a syndrome, and which often have a significant genetic component. In addition, we offer specific testing using other molecular techniques for other neurodevelopmental syndromes such as Fragile X Syndrome, Angelman Syndrome, and Prader-Willi Syndrome.
