Pervasive alterations of intra-axonal volume and network organization in young children with a 16p11.2 deletion
Abstract Reciprocal Copy Number Variants (CNVs) at the 16p11.2 locus confer high risk for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs).Morphometric MRI studies have revealed large and pervasive volumetric alterations in carriers of a 16p11.2 deletion.However, the specific neuroanatomical mechanisms underlying such al
