16p11.2 copy number variations have been associated with neurodevelopmental disorders. Human induced pluripotent stem cells were generated from fibroblasts obtained from a patient diagnosed with schizophrenia with a 16p11.2 deletion. The generated cell line was further validated for its pluripotency and potential to differentiate into the three germ layers.
