Facebook Live Event!

Join us as we discuss YOUR role in Autism Research on Facebook Live! This Wednesday at 7pm EST.

We are going to discuss two Autism research studies currently being conducted by our center. Join our very own Sophie and Rachel to learn more about our POLO and ATLAS projects!

Dr. Sophie Schwartz is a postdoctoral research fellow at CARE and a senior project manager for the Predicting and Optimizing Language Outcomes research program. She received her PhD in Computational Neuroscience from Boston University in 2019 and has focused for over a decade on the study of individuals with autism who have language impairments or are minimally verbal.

Rachel is a Project Coordinator at CARE, which means she is in charge of managing current research studies – from planning and coordinating to implementation. She is currently running the Caregiver Interview Study. Rachel has a background in neuroscience, education, and psychology, having received her Bachelor’s of Science in Neurobiology from the University of Washington and her Master’s in Education in Mind, Brain, and Education from the Harvard Graduate School of Education. She has worked in multiple psychology labs working with folks with autism, studying social, behavioral, and communication outcomes in infants through adolescents.
