Yesterday we farewelled our darling sister Caitlin, who died peacefully at home on Feburary 22nd. Cancer took her from us too soon, as it did her beloved husband Adam in 2021. Any contribution to their two precious daughters would be greatly appreciated.

An incredible tale of #researchdiscovery! 20 years ago, the hunt for a gene behind a facial congenital disease began at @PerkinsComms with (then PhD student) Dr David Chandler & Prof Nigel Laing AO.
They worked with the world’s largest family affected by #hemifacialmicrosomia 👇
