We aim to ensure that high quality outcome measures are available to evaluate treatments and services for children with disability rigorously. We aim to translate our research into resources to support families, carers and clinicians.

The Sibling Project focuses on the wellbeing, relationships and needs of children, adolescents and emerging adults who have a sibling with a developmental disability.

Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) conditions are rare, and most have a genetic cause.

One of the many reasons for setting up the International CDKL5 Disorder Database was to learn more about this condition.

Our research covers a broad range of areas from the influence of mutation type on health outcomes to factors impacting on the lives of familes.

We also wanted to find out whether any particular behaviours were associated with any specific mutation types.

Regression, including the loss of previously learned skills, such as hand function and communication skills, is one of the most suggestive features of Rett synd

This study used information from international Rett syndrome database to investigate the relationship between clinical characteristics and different mutations.

Using information from the Australian Rett Syndrome database, we coded symptoms according to severity scales and grouped by type and location of mutation.

Therefore, we wanted to compare the features of girls and women with a C-terminal deletion with those with other MECP2 mutations.
