The New Frontier of Autism Research & Factors We Need to Consider with Dr. Karen Parker

The New Frontier of Autism Research & Factors We Need to Consider with Dr. Karen Parker

Has our understanding of autism changed how we treat and diagnose the disorder?

According to the CDC, one in thirty-six children in the US have autism. Unlike many other medical conditions, the diagnosis of autism is done based purely on behavior. That ignores the environmental and genetic factors that can contribute to autism and can cause children to be misdiagnosed for years in their early development. But this might start to change.

I’m excited to welcome Dr. Karen Parker to the show today. Dr. Parker directs the Social Neurosciences Research Program at Stanford University. She seeks to understand the biological basis of social functioning to drive diagnostic and treatment advances in people with social impairment.

Autism is a very poorly understood disorder and there are still many obstacles in the field of autism research. But exciting research coming out of Stanford University might lead to pivotal insights into a new theory about a key driving force for autism. Listen in as Dr. Parker shares her insights on autism research, contributing factors, and how early interventions and treatments can help your child.
