Neurodevelopmental Delays

Children’s National Medical Center’s Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Research Center (IDDRC) supports five scientific core programs used by more than 90 NIH-funded investigators.

Funded by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), and directed by principal investigator Vittorio Gallo, PhD, IDDRC focuses on the molecular structure of genetic diseases that cause intellectual and other developmental disabilities.

The center supports seven areas of multidisciplinary and translational research
