Abstract: 

Scientists can make a mouse with Rett Syndrome (a form of autism), but did you know that scientists have discovered how to reverse Rett Syndrome in mice? Grantee Christie Buchovecky explains how her ASF-funded study will build on this discovery and could eventually allow us to reverse Rett Syndrome in humans.

Watch the interview between ASF Pre-Doctoral Grantee Christie Buchovecky and ASF President Alison Singer at IMFAR 2011.
