Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Kathleen Angkustsiri"
Kathleen Angkustsiri's recent research primarily focuses on understanding the neurodevelopmental and psychiatric outcomes associated with genetic conditions, particularly the 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and its relationship with autism spectrum disorders (ASD).
Her studies utilize multidisciplinary approaches, including neuroimaging, metabolomic analyses, and maternal health factors, to explore how environmental and biological variables, such as breastfeeding duration and maternal autoantibodies, impact cognitive and behavioral outcomes in affected populations.
Findings from her work suggest significant links between early nutritional practices and neurodevelopmental trajectories, alongside establishing metabolic biomarkers and identifying structural brain abnormalities tied to genetic syndromes, which could inform future therapeutic strategies and interventions.
