Abstract

Using 3D morphometric imaging, Qiu et al. demonstrate that large copy-number variants (CNVs) of 16p11.2 have significant effects on craniofacial structure that are conserved in humans and model organisms, and they demonstrate that these craniofacial phenotypes are attributable to the dosage effects of multiple genes within the CNV region.
