The test was refined to identify the most likely mutations, and retesting of earlier samples based on an earlier indirect marker test developed by UCD, [9] indicated a 97% accuracy rate for the old test relative to the newer version, with no false negatives. [10] The causative mutation was identified on the gene TOE1 in 2011. [11]
FOXP2 is expressed in many areas of the brain, [19] including the basal ganglia and inferior frontal cortex, where it is essential for brain maturation and speech and language development.

Exercise-induced collapse (EIC) is a genetic disorder, mainly found in Labrador Retrievers, [1] Chesapeake Bay Retrievers , Curly Coated Retrievers, and Boykin Spaniels. . The genetic mutation has also been seen in a few cases in Cocker spaniels, German wire-haired pointers, Old English Sheepdogs, Bouvier des Flandres, Pembroke Welsh Corgis and Clumber Spani
The whole process took around an hour. Different activities had varying effects on participants’ brain waves. Playing and walking with a dog increased the strength of the alpha-band oscillations ...
