While we can't hold an in-person poster session, we still want to share emerging work in autism research.

Poster sessions are often a great way to see research in its early stages, which means that results presented in posters may change as projects progress or further research is conducted.

All of the posters went through a strict review process and were evaluated by both researchers and community members.

Just click on the poster title to see it in full.
