They represented the CBrA Lab at their booth, informing clinicians, researchers, caretakers, and other parties about the lab’s research and opportunities for participation. Many talented and respected speakers presented at the conference, providing insights into the current state of Autism research, care, and community. We look forward to the next AAC in 2025!
