A collaborative of researchers from Manchester University, The University of Liverpool and Aston University have demonstrated that intellectual difficulties are a central feature of fetal valproate syndrome, and are more severe in their presentation in individuals with a diagnosis of valproate embryopathy. Full details of the study have been published in Neurotoxicology and Teratology.
