Next Gen Sibs Project
If you or your partner have a sibling with autism, your baby could be eligible to receive expert developmental monitoring from leading clinicians and researchers at no cost to you! This may include written reports and personalized feedback, along with support and resources for your family. Visits may be in person or via telehealth and you will be paid for your time! The Next Gen Sibs Project is a multi-site research study exploring how autism traits run in families. We know that children with an autistic sibling have a higher likelihood of autism, and early research suggests the same may be true for children whose parent has an autistic sibling. You may be eligible if: 1) You have a baby (12 months or younger) or are currently expecting and 2) At least one of your baby’s biological aunts or uncles is diagnosed with autism. Enroll now to participate virtually or in-person at one of our 8 sites across the world! Participating sites include UCLA, Yale University, Emory University, Washington University in St. Louis, UC Davis, University of Miami, University of London – Birkbeck, and University of Alberta!
