Understanding Autism through the Lens of Sensorimotor Features and Early-Developing Brain Regions
Sensorimotor differences are commonly reported in autistic individuals. However, the daily-life impact and neurobiological basis of motor differences are not clear. This talk will discuss sensorimotor differences commonly reported in autistic individuals, links to daily living skills, and links to early-developing brain structures like the brainstem. This talk will also discuss the results of a motor intervention aimed to capitalize on neuroplasticity in autistic youth.
