UMass Medical School joins Autism Speaks network
An autism study center at UMass Medical School in Worcester has joined a learning health network of the national advocacy group Autism Speaks.
The network, part of New Jersey nonprofit Autism Speaks, brings together academic leaders in autism and other neurodevelopmental and intellectual disabilities nationwide to share clinical data collection and outcomes research to improve care.
The Worcester school's Eunice Kennedy Shriver Center’s Center for Autism and Neurodevelopmental Disorders has now joined the network along with 20 other academic clinics that do similar research, including Massachusetts General Hospital's Lurie Center for Autism in Lexington. The Autism Health Learning Network was launched in 2018.
Dr. Jean Frazier, the Shriver Center's executive director, said in a statement joining the network will help the center through feedback to improve the quality of care it delivers.
