University of Arizona Autism Research Collective

2025

We are a consortium of researchers and practitioners at The University of Arizona who seek to gain and share greater understanding of autism and related neurodevelopmental disorders. Central to our mission is translating investigative findings to real life application. The group has members from diverse academic disciplines based in the Colleges of Education, Science, Medicine, Agriculture, Public Health and Business, as well as leaders of programs that provide services and support to persons across the spectrum and their families. The purpose of the Collective is to improve the health and educational outcomes of families, children, and adults on the autism spectrum. As an integrative group, the Collective uses the following three pillars to advance the realm of research and service: 1.Dissemination of research findings in identification, assessment, and treatment 2.Program development 3.Community outreach
