Forskningsbeskrivning
- My PhD project intends to focus on two areas:
1. Psychoeducational interventions for intellectually able adults with
autism and their close relations. The intervention (Prisma) intends to be a
highly accessible effort that includes all adults with an ASD diagnosis
regardless of the broad variability and presence of comorbidities.
2. The other and greater part of my PhD project aims to aid the precision
medicine development in ASD by investigating putative neurochemical and
behavioral stratification markers in a dimensional strategy using narrowly
defined phenotype measurements rather than only the categorical ASD
diagnosis. This is in line with Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) which
highlights a framework of basic dimensions of functions for normal and
abnormal behavior beyond the arbitrary diagnostic categories.
