Healthcare Study 1a: Survey

APPROVED: Dec. 18, 2009

Participate in a New Gateway Study

The Academic Autistic Spectrum Partnership in Research and Education (AASPIRE) and the Gernsbacher Lab have created the Gateway Project. The project serves as a gateway for research that is committed to inclusion, respect, accessibility, and community relevance.

Gateway studies address topics such as well-being and problem-solving. A new AASPIRE Gateway study focuses on the healthcare experiences of adults on the autistic spectrum and adults with and without disabilities. AASPIRE expects to use the information learned from this study to improve healthcare.
