Dr. Natalya Karp is a medical geneticist at the Children's Hospital (LHSC) specializing in rare genetic disorders with interest in inborn errors of metabolism, neurofibromatosis, and tuberous sclerosis.
Dr. Karp is a member of the multidisciplinary neurofibromatosis clinic at the London Health Sciences Centre and is principal investigator on a study looking at the clinical course of optic glioma in children with Neurofibromatosis type 1. The project, funded through an AMOSO grant, is designed to address current gaps in knowledge of clinical course of optic gliomas, as well as to provide recommendations on screening, management and follow-up of children with this condition. As a part of this project a registry of pediatric patients currently followed in the neurofibromatosis clinic will be created, which will make other research projects possible in future.
Dr. Natalya Karp joined the Department of Paediatrics and the Medical Genetics Program of SouthWestern Ontario in 2014. She is a Medical Geneticist at the London Health Science Centre and an Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Western University. She obtained her medical degree from Astana Medical University (formerly known as Kazakh State Medical Academy) in Kazakhstan (former Soviet Union) in 1998. She completed her residency in Medical Genetics in Toronto in 2014. She holds a Master of Science in Human Genetics from McGill University and is a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada.
Dr. Karp’s clinical and research interests are in rare genetic disorders, inborn errors of metabolism, neurofibromatosis and tuberous sclerosis.
