In an interview with Patricia Camilleri for University Matters on Campus FM 103.7, Jean Calleja Agius recently discussed imprinting disorders (IDs), a group of rare congenital diseases affecting growth, development and metabolism with a lifelong impact on patients’ quality of life.

IDs are usually studied separately by small groups of researchers working in isolation, and the basic pathogenesis and long-term clinical consequences of IDs remain largely unknown.

However, Calleja Agius is taking part in a European Cooperation in Science and Technology (Cost) action that aims to draw together international researchers in an effort to standardise diagnostic and clinical management of IDs.
