Collaborative Autism Research Fora
A key aim of Research Autism is to connect those affected by and interested in autism in order to improve communication, stimulate collaboration and provide momentum for research in the areas of greatest need in autism intervention. Our research fora are designed to do exactly this.
We remain focused on issues that are of particular importance to individuals with autism and their families. Our study of the NAS membership, conducted in 2005 by Richard Mills and Lorna Wing, continues to provide guidance for Research Autism as we consider our future projects including topics for research fora. Issues that affect quality of life will continue to have highest priority.
