We are recruiting people with 22q11.2 Deletions and Duplications for a research study. This current research study aims to examine emotional adjustment, thought processes such as memory and attention, and brain structure and activity in specific genes affected by 22qDS’ to ‘genes affected by 22q11.2 variants. The study also aims to determine whether variation in the specific genes affected by 22qDS is related to differences in brain structure, function and behavior.
