Project Title Project Title	Exploring the neuropathophysiology of autism spectrum disorders
Principal Investigator Principal Investigator	Enticott, Peter
Description Description	There are currently no validated biomedical techniques for diagnosing or treating autism spectrum disorders (ASD). This project will use cutting-edge neuroscience techniques to better understand the neurobiology of ASD and how neurobiological impairments relate to specific symptoms. These results will promote a better understanding of the brain basis of ASD, and may provide realistic targets for the development of new biomedical methods for diagnosis and treatment.
