Minimally Verbal Autism Spectrum Disorder: From Basic Mechanisms to Innovative Interventions

Boston Higashi School’s Research Team has been assisting Boston University’s Center for Autism Research Excellence (CARE) with their research on language. Nearly two-dozen BHS students have completed Phase I of this study: a series of skill assessments in Higashi’s new on-campus testing room. Phase II of this study is especially exciting, as it involves trips to the neuroimaging labs in CARE.
Higashi is proud to partner with Dr. Helen Tager-Flusberg and her team. Learn more about them (and the study itself) here.
