Muenke, Thomas

Thomas Muenke is an American geneticist known for his research on the genetic basis of developmental disorders, particularly those affecting the skull and face, such as craniosynostosis. He studies how specific genetic mutations influence growth and shape, aiming to understand how these changes occur and impact human health. Muenke's work contributes to the field of medical genetics by helping to explain how genetic variations can lead to physical abnormalities. His research is significant for developing potential treatments and improving diagnostic methods for related conditions.
