Cornell University Receives $5.1 Million Grant To Fund Autism Research Center

Investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine and Cornell’s Ithaca campus announced the receipt of a three-year, $5.1 million grant from the National Institutes of Health’s Autism Data Science Initiative (ADSI) to launch the Autism Replication, Validation, and Reproducibility (AR²) Center. The center aims to improve the reliability of autism research and foster public trust in the field.

AR² will use existing data from previous research, Medicaid claims, and other data repositories, including the INSIGHT Clinical Research Network, led by Kaushal, and PCORnet, to support its analysis of the validity and generalizability of ADSI results.
