Congratulations to the UC Davis MIND Institute—a member of the Fragile X Clinical & Research Consortium (FXCRC)— for being named an Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Research Center. Only a handful of neurodevelopmental centers hold that distinction, and we’re proud to call them our friends and colleagues in the Fragile X community.

The designation will provide the MIND Institute with new tools to further strengthen its neurodevelopmental research across the schools, programs and departments of the entire university, cementing its stature as ‘the house that collaboration built,’ and knitting together the work of basic science researchers and clinicians to advance the development of new therapies for people with neurodevelopmental disorders.
