SUMMARY:Research Updates on Maternal Autoantibodies and ASD - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Tune in to hear Judy Van de Water\, Ph.D. describe recent research using machine learning to identify several patterns of maternal autoantibodies highly associated with the diagnosis and severity of autism.\n\n\n\nFree certificates of participation are available upon successful completion of a brief knowledge quiz after the webinar. The quiz will be added to this page once the event has concluded.  \n\n\nAbout the speaker:\n\n\n\nDr. Van de Water joined the faculty in the Department of Internal Medicine at the University of California\, Davis in 1999. In 2000\, she also joined the faculty of the newly formed UC Davis M.I.N.D. Institute when she began her research on the immunobiology of autism. Dr. Van de Water’s laboratory pursues research programs pertaining to autoimmune and clinical immune-based disorders including the biological aspects of autism spectrum disorders. The application of Dr. Van de Water’s immunopathology background has been instrumental in the dissection of the immune anomalies noted in some individuals with autism\, and in the differentiation of various autism behavioral phenotypes at a biological level. Most notable of these is the investigation of the maternal immune system as it relates to autism spectrum disorders\, with particular emphasis on the presence of highly specific maternal autoantibodies to fetal brain proteins. Dr. Van de Water’s seminal work in this area has led to a highly specific biomarker of autism risk as well as three patents leading to the commercialization of this technology. Dr. Van de Water is currently the Director of the NIEHS funded Center for Children’s Environmental Health at UC Davis\, investigating potential environmental risk factors contributing to the incidence and severity of childhood autism.\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister:  https://www.autism.org/maternal-antibodies-asd/

SUMMARY:Webinar: Living with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD)
DESCRIPTION:Please join Dianne O’Connor\, Regional Coordinator for Parent to Parent of NYS as she presents the webinar Living with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD).
