Our research focus

"Our research focus is not on finding a cure for autism or the causes of autism. Our focus is to identify the best possible ways to support people on the autism spectrum and their families and carers to realise their goals and aspirations, based on evidence from our own research studies and from other autism researchers around the world"

Corollary of this approach research focus

Unfortunately such an approach means that any family who has a child diagnosed with the condition, will then have a life-time of care for the person affected, and that then also means that this will ultimately involve a life-time carer, and the associated costs.
