It provides information about current research being conducted on autism generally and at NECC specifically, and includes articles on current scientific research on autism and other intellectual disabilities being conducted elsewhere, a specific topic area being studied at NECC, and a summary of current publications or presentations by NECC staff. We hope the distribution of this newsletter will help educate readers on major developments in the field of autism and on current research findings from a range of important topics being conducted at NECC.
