Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Elizabeth A. Sellars' research focuses on the genetic underpinnings of neurodevelopmental disorders and congenital anomalies. Her work investigates deleterious, protein-altering variants in genes such as AFF3 and ZMYM3, which have been associated with intellectual disability, mesomelic dysplasia, horseshoe kidney, and epileptic encephalopathy. Sellars has also examined variants in the tumor protein p63 gene in cases of ankyloblepharon-ectodermal defects-cleft lip/palate syndrome and explored the presentation of holoprosencephaly. She has contributed to the implementation of pharmacogenomics testing at Arkansas Children’s Hospital. Sellars' scholarship metrics include an h-index of 17, 38 total publications, and 1,353 total citations. Her collaborators include Kevin Bielamowicz, Pritmohinder S. Gill, Jason Farrar, and Feliciano Yu, all from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
