This study uses eye tracking technology to help detect early signs of autism in young children during regular health checkups. It may help identify children who could benefit from early support.
This study tests whether a tablet/computer app can reliably spot early autism signs in toddlers. If it works well, it could help families and clinicians screen sooner and more accurately.
This study looks at blood samples and other health information collected during pregnancy to see if certain factors are linked to autism in children. It may help us understand what causes autism and how to support families.
This trial checks how 8- to 10-month-old babies visually engage with people, which may help screen for autism risk earlier. It may help by improving early identification, especially for families who want screening done in a research setting.
This study is testing different ways to encourage people who are at higher risk for HIV to get retested regularly. If you are HIV-negative and get tested at a participating clinic, you may be eligible.
