Barbara Bailus, PhD

I was first introduced to Angelman syndrome when doing my doctoral research in Dr. Segal's lab. My connection continued with the Angelman community as a scientific advisor and volunteer during my postdoctoral studies, and continues now as I do Angelman research in my own laboratory.
