Treacher Collins Research Paper

When a baby is born, it can have all sorts of risks that can affect its way of living. A baby can get diseases, sicknesses, disorders, and much, much more. Treacher Collins disease is a different story.
Treacher Collins disease is a condition in which the facial features of one are not completely formed.

All in all, Treacher Collins disease is a mutation in certain genes that can affect respiratory problems and can affect one’s appearance. And since this disease is completely genetic, it cannot be solved so very easy. With that, I believe that the disease is not completely severe, but still is not a positive
