Perinatal Autism Genetics and Epigenetics Study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at genetics and other factors that may be linked to autism. Pregnant women in their first or second trimester are invited to join, and their babies will be followed to see how they develop.

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 looks at how social behaviors and brain connections develop in infants who have a higher or lower chance of developing autism. It helps doctors understand early signs and may lead to better support for children and families.
This study looks at how a mother's health and environment during pregnancy may relate to autism in her child. It uses samples collected during pregnancy from first-time mothers who were part of the nuMoM2b study.
This study asks people with specific genetic changes linked to autism and their family members to complete online tasks and questionnaires. It may help researchers better understand how these genetic differences relate to autism traits.
This study looks at the genetic and molecular profiles of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to better understand the condition and find new treatments. It compares children with ASD who have no known genetic cause to those with a specific genetic syndrome.
This study looks at parents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and their young children, aged 0 to 6 years. It aims to understand their parenting experiences and needs, and includes a control group of parents without psychiatric diagnoses.
