The Early Insights Research Study aims to understand brain development in infants and toddlers who may or may not develop intellectual or developmental delay. This study will use a non-invasive brain scanning technology called magnetoencephalography (MEG). We hope the information gained from this study may lead to possible treatment strategies for children who have intellectual or developmental delay.

The mission of SPARK is to ignite research at an unprecedented scale to improve lives by advancing our understanding of autism. To join this national autism research cohort, individuals with a professional diagnosis of autism and their biological family members will be asked to share information about their medical and family history, as well as provide a DNA sample.
