معرفی
Anna Duncan, M.D. serves as Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. Her professional address is 55 Fruit Street, Boston, MA 02114. Dr. Duncan maintains an active research profile focused on the genetic basis of pediatric neurological and developmental conditions.
Dr. Duncan's research spans multiple areas in pediatric genetics and neurodevelopment. Her work prominently features investigations into neurodevelopmental disorders, ion channels, and genetic mutations underlying muscular dystrophies. She has made significant contributions to understanding how variants in genes like CLCN3 and KDM4B lead to neurodevelopmental conditions and developmental delays. Her earlier work established important connections between genetic mutations and various forms of muscular dystrophy, demonstrating her longstanding commitment to rare disease research.
Analysis of Dr. Duncan's publication history reveals a clear trajectory from muscular dystrophy research (2010-2012) to more recent investigations of neurodevelopmental disorders (2020-2021). Her work frequently involves large collaborative research teams, as evidenced by publications with numerous co-authors across institutions. The consistent focus across her career has been identifying genetic mechanisms of pediatric conditions to improve diagnostic capabilities and understanding of disease pathology.
Dr. Duncan collaborates extensively with researchers including O'Donnell Luria, Anne; Kritzer, Amy; Barrero-Castillero, Paola Alejandra; Wojcik, Monica; and Stoler, Joan. Within Massachusetts General Hospital's Pediatrics Department, she works alongside colleagues such as Mobassaleh, Munir; Gravel, Cynthia; Agarwal, Suneet; Casey, Alicia; and Hansen, Steen. Her inclusion in the Harvard Neonatal-Perinatal Fellowship COVID-19 Working Group demonstrates her engagement with contemporary clinical challenges affecting pediatric populations.
