The Bernier Lab had an amazing presence at the 2017 International Meeting for Autism Research (IMFAR) in San Francisco, CA, with thirteen lab members presenting posters and panel discussions. Highlights include a presentation by Caitlin Hudac, PhD (post-doc) on dynamic patterns of attention in children with rare SCN2A genetic variants, and a talk by Rachel Earl (5th year in the School Psychology Program, College of Education) on phenotypic presentation and the role of parental phenotype in accounting for variability in individuals with disruptive DYRK1A mutations.
“I am thrilled with our lab’s research and presentations at IMFAR,” said Raphe Bernier, PhD. “We have had a productive year in research, and it is truly amazing to see the hard work our students and staff have put into the advancement of Autism Research.”
