This workshop for all levels of professionals will review the clinical phenotype of autism spectrum disorder focusing on the newer research which helps understand symptomatology when diagnosis is more challenging or less understood. Will discuss autism and how it unfolds from infancy and how we can diagnose in early toddlerhood, to presentation in girls and other groups such as children born prematurely. Will discuss what makes clinicians more or less certain diagnostically and how we may have biases in our diagnostic evaluations. In addition, given the newer tools coming to the market - from AI technology to biomarker tools, we will discuss the science behind them as well as their pros and cons. Will also discuss some latest in our understanding of genetic causation. Presented by Cheryl Klaiman, PhD |
