Participation in Research Studies
The Autism Consortium depends on the families who have volunteered not only to join studies but also to contribute their ideas to the world's best researchers and physicians to accelerate new diagnostic tools and therapies for autism spectrum disorders.
Discovering new genes and improved diagnostics
We have just launched a new study for families that have a member diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The study involves providing blood samples as well as an assessment battery including IQ tests, questionnaires and observations. Parents and siblings, along with the family member diagnosed with an ASD, are invited to participate.
