Author Information
Stephen Wayne Scherer is a distinguished geneticist affiliated with several prestigious institutions, including the Department of Molecular Genetics at the University of Toronto, the Genetics and Genome Biology division at the Research Institute of The Hospital for Sick Children, and The Centre for Applied Genomics, also at The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Canada. He is also associated with the McLaughlin Centre at the University of Toronto. His research primarily focuses on genetics and genomics, with significant contributions to understanding complex genetic disorders.Research Contributions
Stephen Wayne Scherer has made notable contributions to the field of genetics, particularly in the study of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other neurodevelopmental disorders. In 2022 alone, he published numerous papers exploring the genetic underpinnings of these conditions, including studies on whole genome sequencing, DNA methylation signatures, and mutational landscapes in ASD. His research also extends to the development of novel tools for genomic variant prioritization and interpretation, as well as the identification of new syndromes and genetic variants associated with various neurodevelopmental disorders.Aliases
Throughout his academic career, Stephen Wayne Scherer has been referenced by several variations of his name, including S Scherer, S. W. Scherer, Stephen W. Scherer, Steven Scherer, Steve Scherer, and Steven W. Scherer. These aliases reflect different renditions of his full name used in diverse publications and academic contexts.Publication and Citation Metrics
