Looking Forward to INSAR 2021!
INSAR (International Society for Autism Research) is one of the major annual research symposiums in the autism community, and in 2021 not only will the meeting be a hybrid virtual/in-person conference, but it’s happening right here in Boston! Members from the lab attend every year regardless of where it’s being held, but it’s nice to have it closer to home this time! :)
This past year, our director, Dr. Helen Tager-Flusberg, won the prestigious INSAR Lifetime Achievement Award, given only to those who have made substantial fundamental contributions to research on autism. Applications to present work in May’s conference are closing soon, so we’ve been working hard to prepare abstracts- so far we’re up to about 20 different abstracts!
