We are conducting a research study about visual problems in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). We believe that many children with autism may have undiagnosed eye problems because they cannot explain when they have trouble seeing and may not undergo routine eye exams. We hope to develop a method to screen for visual problems in using a new, non-invasive technology called eye tracking. We will use a camera to record your child’s eye movements as they watch video clips for 15-20 minutes.
1. To identify family members of people with type 1 diabetes that may be at risk for developing type 1 diabetes. 2. To monitor the metabolic and immunologic status of at-risk individuals. Eligible individuals will be offered enrollment in type 1 diabetes prevention studies. See website for more details https://www.trialnet.org/
Our purpose is to look at the long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes of preterm neonatal brain abnormalities.
Study early development in infants who have an older sibling with autism.
Understand the experiences of patients and parents in treatment decision making for children with Neuromuscular Scoliosis (NMS).
To better understand the effects of nutrition in early pregnancy on infant growth and development.
The purpose of the study is to learn about how to improve access to care during adolescence/young adulthood and to see if Virtual Team Clinic is an acceptable form of care. Virtual Team Clinic is a new approach to provide care to (middle/high) school aged patients living with Type 1 Diabetes and their families. This new approach consists of Virtual Team Clinic appointments (primarily telemedicine, and/or in person as necessary). The study also incorporates group visits/medical appointments with a multidisciplinary care team (e.g., RD, RN, Social Worker, etc.). Each group will have a special theme and learning experience. You will learn how to better take care of your diabetes, get support from others, and hopefully have fun.
The objective of this study is to better understand the effects of chronic diseases, such as congenital heart disease, on blood vessel function and on blood characteristics.
