    Copy Number Variation Analysis from SNP Genoty** Microarrays in Large Cohorts of Neurological Disorders

    Copy number variants (CNVs) are a major source of genetic variation in the human genome, and they are highly heterogeneous in type, size, and frequency. CNVs represent the largest portion of genomic variation ...
