Congratulations to Gail Alvares from our Autism research team who has been named as one the ABC's Top 5 Under 40 scientists in residence.
The Telethon Institute will play a key role in a ground breaking, multi-million dollar Autism research centre announced by Prime Minister Julia Gillard.
New research from the Telethon Institute has shown that children with an intellectual disability are up to 10x more likely to be admitted to hospital.
Dr Andrew Whitehouse says results from a US study are just the first step when it comes to looking for environmental factors related to autism.
Research has found a link between children with larger head measurements in-utero and a subsequent diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) as toddlers.
The rapid increase in the number of children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) in Western Australia reflects changes to diagnostic practices

Early motor impairments have been reported in children with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD), but it is not clear if early detection of motor impairments can identify children at risk for NDD or how early such impairments might be detected. Our aim was to characterize early motor function in children later diagnosed with NDD relative to typically developing children or normative data.
