James F. Gusella has made significant contributions to the field of genetics, particularly in understanding Huntington's disease and related neurogenetic disorders. His research has explored genetic modifiers that influence motor and cognitive domains in Huntington's disease, providing critical insights into the disease's pathogenesis. His studies have also examined the role of FAN1 nuclease activity in the CAG expansion and age at onset of Huntington's disease. Additionally, his work has delved into the transcriptional and functional consequences of genetic alterations in neuronal models, offering a deeper understanding of developmental disorders and potential therapeutic interventions.Aliases
