A journey through the history of Neurogenetics

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2021
Since the late 19th century, when several inherited neurological disorders were described, the close relationship between Neurology and heredity were well documented by several authors in a pre-genetic era.

A Proposed Diagnostic Algorithm for Inborn Errors of Metabolism Presenting With Movements Disorders

Frontiers in Neurology, 2020
Inherited metabolic diseases or inborn errors of metabolism frequently manifest with both hyperkinetic (dystonia, chorea, myoclonus, ataxia, tremor, etc.) and hypokinetic (rigid-akinetic syndrome) movement disorders. The diagnosis of these diseases is in

Inborn Errors of Metabolism in the Era of Untargeted Metabolomics and Lipidomics. [PDF]

, 2019
Inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs) are a group of inherited diseases with variable incidences. IEMs are caused by disrupting enzyme activities in specific metabolic pathways by genetic mutations, either directly or indirectly by cofactor deficiencies ...

Clinical biological and genetic heterogeneity of the inborn errors of pulmonary surfactant metabolism [PDF]

, 2001
Pulmonary surfactant is a multimolecular complex located at the air-water interface within the alveolus to which a range of physical (surface-active properties) and immune functions has been assigned. This complex consists of a surface-active lipid layer

Evolving Inborn Knowledge For Fast Adaptation in Dynamic POMDP Problems [PDF]

, 2020
Rapid online adaptation to changing tasks is an important problem in machine learning and, recently, a focus of meta-reinforcement learning. However, reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms struggle in POMDP environments because the state of the system, essential in a RL framework, is not always visible. Additionally, hand-designed meta-RL architectures
