Autism Mini-Conference

Cupertino Community Hall
10300 Torre Ave.
Cupertino, CA 95014

Speaking will be Rick Rollens, one of the founding fathers of the UC Davis M.I.N.D. (Medical Investigation of Neurodevelopmental Disorders ) Institute, and Dr. Paul Ashwood.

Dr. Ashwood, an immunologist, is a recent recruit to the M.I.N.D. Institute. Much of his current work is directed at characterizing the role of the immune system in autism. Recognizing the highly complex and interconnected nature of the immune and central nervous systems, Ashwood is interested in exploring whether the health of one system is integral to the healthy development of the other. His initial efforts at the M.I.N.D. Institute will be to fully characterize the immune response in children with autism. Ashwood’s original research in his native England involved identification of a new variant of inflammatory bowel disease found in some cases of autism.

Please attend this very informative Autism Mini-Conference and learn from the experts on the latest studies related to Autism research.
