Our final push for Open Access publishing

Over the past month, several parents contacted us who wanted to learn more about family trio sequencing. I wrote this Lab Note and guest blog post to describe the process, but I also plan to publish a paper in an open access journal that describes the technique in more detail.

To cover publishing costs, we are raising additional funds of approximately $2,500.

During the last 24 hours of our campaign, please support our open access publishing efforts with your donation: http://experiment.com/familytrio

We appreciate your continued interest and financial participation.

With thanks,

- KT and Kimberly

About This Project

StartCodon

Autism is a complex condition, but recent research shows that genetics may play a larger role than previously thought. Today, genetics explains the underlying cause of autism for about one in five individuals. Family trio sequencing is a powerful technique that can explain genetic conditions by looking at differences in DNA between Mom, Dad and an affected child.
