Check for autism and other development issues in sibling children
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study screens brothers and sisters of children with autism to see if they may have neurodevelopmental (brain-and-development) concerns. It could help families catch issues earlier and connect to support sooner.

This study follows pregnant parents and their child to understand what factors influence early brain and development. It compares families with an autistic sibling (higher risk) to families without (lower risk) to spot patterns that may help future care.
This study tests whether a teaching approach called the Denver model helps children with autism communicate better. It compares children who use this approach with those who receive standard care.
This study helps identify signs of autism and other developmental differences early in babies, and then follows families over time. If you join, you’ll be asked to consent and share information as your child grows up to age 3.
This study looks at how children with autism understand social cues compared to other children. It may help improve social skills screening.
This study tests a new way for parents to help their babies learn to communicate by looking at faces and sounds. It is for babies aged 6-12 months who have an older sibling with autism.
This study aims to better understand how motor skills (movement and coordination) work in children with autism spectrum disorder. It uses an assessment approach to help researchers understand what motor difficulties look like, which may improve future evaluations and support.
