In order to better target the underlying mechanisms of autism for diagnosis and treatment, efforts to identify reliable biomarkers in genetics and neuroimaging are advancing quickly.
The purpose of this one-day conference is to provide information ranging from rare genetic variations in autism to more global efforts in functional and structural neuroimaging.
Cost: $120 (free for May employees)
