Murdoch Children's Research Institute · Royal Children's Hospital · University of Melbourne
Richard J Leventer is last author of LEE2021, the study that linked the amount of somatic RHEB variant in brain tissue to the size of a cortical malformation and showed raised mTOR activity in the dysplastic cells. In PubMed he is listed in the Department of Paediatrics at the University of Melbourne, the Murdoch Children's Research Institute and the Department of Neurology at the Royal Children's Hospital in Parkville.
