Scientists in Japan have used gene-editing technology to remove the extra chromosome responsible for Down syndrome, at least in lab-grown human cells. The project, led by Dr. Ryotaro Hashizume of Mie ...

UC Davis researchers are leading a $5.5 million study to better understand how children with Down syndrome develop expressive communication - the skills used to share what we want, think or feel.

When Melissa Hart’s brother was born in 1975, doctors told her parents, “Oh, he’s never going to amount to anything. You need to put him in an institution.” Hart’s brother had Down syndrome, which ...
