Research summary
AI-generated

Amy M. Breman studies the genetics of rare diseases and birth defects, focusing on how to detect chromosomal and genetic abnormalities before and after birth. Her work spans prenatal testing methods, whole genome and exome sequencing to diagnose undiagnosed conditions, and the clinical use of genetic tests to guide patient care. Much of the research aims to improve diagnosis for families affected by inherited disorders and to evaluate new testing technologies.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
