Genetic causes of intellectual disability in adults
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at the genetic causes of intellectual disability in adults. By reviewing your medical records, researchers hope to learn more about the condition and improve future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult over 20 years old.
- You have a confirmed intellectual disability.
- You were seen at the hospital between 2016 and 2025.
- You (or your guardian) agree to let researchers review your medical records.

This study uses advanced gene sequencing to look for the genetic cause of rare diseases that haven't been explained yet. You or a family member might join to help find a diagnosis and contribute to medical research.
This study collects information about people with intellectual disabilities or autism that have a known genetic cause. Parents or family members can enter data about their child, and adults with the condition can also share their own experiences.
This study looks for genes that might change how an intellectual disability shows up. If you've had exome sequencing at Bordeaux University Hospital, you might be able to help researchers learn more.
This study looks at genetic-related and blood/biologic markers in people with an inherited (genetic) intellectual disability. The goal is to better understand these differences and how they might relate to the condition.
This study uses advanced genetic analysis to find the cause of unexplained severe intellectual disability or developmental disorders. It may help identify a diagnosis and guide care, even when standard genetic tests have been negative.
This study uses a new genetic technique to find hidden causes in people with multiple birth defects or intellectual disability who had standard genetic tests come back normal. It might help identify a genetic reason when other tests did not.
