Scientific discoveries that help people with autism are only possible when individuals and families participate in research. Many people are interested in getting involved but may not know where to begin.
ASF created this searchable directory to help you find a study that is right for you. You can use the keyword function to search for something specific, or browse by age, location, and whether you’d rather participate in person at a study site or remotely. Once your results appear, you can narrow them down even further using the topic filter. A floating menu will move with your results and show how many studies match each topic. Selecting a topic updates your results instantly so you can focus on what you’re interested in.
Some studies give financial incentives for participation, others will provide services like supports or interventions, and some may share results and provide documentation that can help you understand and learn more about yourself or your family members. You can see which studies offer these by looking for the icons on the search results.
For scientists: It is free to include your study in the directory. You can submit it directly through the submission form.
