Seattle/LocalHealthGuide : Funds going to look into autism-vaccine link wasted, says new autism advocacy group

Tue, 21 Apr 2009 15:23:02 +0000

Autism Speaks Comments on the launch of the Autism Science Foundation: As the world's largest autism advocacy and research organization, Autism Speaks is committed to funding the most promising biomedical research into the causes, prevention, treatments, and cures for autism. Our science funding - more than $130 million to date - encourages researchers to take a range of approaches in the search for the many unanswered questions about autism. The common thread is a strong basis in rigorous science and a belief in the importance of innovation and collaboration. While this aspect of the organization's work is rooted in science, it is also influenced by the concerns and insights of individuals with autism and their families. We welcome the establishment of any organization - large or small - that seeks to accelerate promising research and its practical application. By encouraging the best scientists to focus on autism research, together we are moving closer to the answers we all seek.
