Decoding Developmental Convergence: Mapping Genetic Risk Across Neural and Cardiac Lineages

Many children born with heart defects at birth later develop conditions such as autism or developmental delay. Today, doctors and families often do not know, early in life, which children are at highest risk for problems with brain development. Genetic studies suggest that heart and brain develop...

Dynastic Finance: Talent Recruitment

Wealth does not only belong to individuals—it moves through families. Over time, assets are accumulated, shared, invested, and passed on across generations. To understand economic inequality and mobility, we therefore need to look beyond individuals and households to extended family networks, or ...
