Our faces are central to our ability to communicate, feed, breath and interact with each other. Birth defects that impact on the normal development of the face are common and affect not only the child but have a dramatic impact on the child's family as well. The genetic causes of most facial birth defects are unknown. This project will develop a method for determining how development of the face is controlled and will help identify genes that are responsible for facial birth defects.

我们的脸是我们交流、进食、呼吸和相互作用的核心。影响面部正常发育的出生缺陷是很常见的，不仅影响到孩子，而且对孩子的家庭也有巨大的影响。大多数面部先天缺陷的遗传原因尚不清楚。该项目将开发一种方法来确定面部发育是如何被控制的，并将有助于识别导致面部出生缺陷的基因。
