Brain Development and Disorders Project Colloquium Series “Looking at and thinking about people in individuals with autism through the lifespan”
Ami Klin, Ph.D. Harris Associate Professor of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, Yale Child Study Center, Yale University School of Medicine Building Address: 43 Vassar Street, Cambridge, MA 02139
Please RSVP to lmavros@mit.edu
Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder disrupting basic mechanisms of social engagement. This presentation will provide an overview of studies of visual scanning patterns to naturalistic social situations involving individuals with autism from infancy to adulthood. These studies illustrate a programmatic effort at the Simons Laboratory of Social Neuroscience in Infancy and the Yale Child Study Center Developmental Disabilities Program to develop new methods to quantify core disabilities in autism. Its goal is to map the ontogeny of social engagement in human development and to create methods for the identification of vulnerabilities for autism in the first year of life.
Hosted by Professor Pawan Sinha
Supported by the Simons Foundation and the Anne and Paul Marcus Family Foundation
