Stephen Warren (geneticist)

Stephen Warren is a prominent American geneticist known for his work on genetic disorders, particularly fragile X syndrome. This condition is the most common inherited cause of intellectual disability and is linked to a mutation in the FMR1 gene. Warren's research has significantly advanced our understanding of how this genetic change affects brain function and development. Through his findings, he has contributed to potential therapies and interventions that could improve the lives of those affected by this syndrome. His work exemplifies the importance of genetics in understanding and treating human health issues.
