We are proud to announce that Dr. Jennifer Foss-Feig has received a Simons Foundation Autism Research Initiative (SFARI) 2021 Human Cognitive and Behavioral Science Award! The project, titled “A neuroscience-inspired digital platform for measuring social functions to parse heterogeneity and predict outcome in autism,” will investigate social functioning in adolescents with autism spectrum disorder. Congrats Jen!<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\tThe International Society for Autism Research (INSAR) held it\u2019s annual meeting in Montreal, Canada. INSAR is one of the largest meetings of its kind, bringing together researchers from around the world to discuss and share the latest findings in autism research for four days. Many of the members of the Foss-Feig lab participated in the conference disseminating research results that investigated different aspects of sensory and perceptual processing.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>

Clinical Research Coordinator Emily Isenstein<\/strong> will be attending the University of Rochester in the fall of 2018 as a part of the Medical Scientist Training Program to pursue an MD\/PhD dual degree. She plans to continue her involvement in the autism field and ultimately hopes to combine her clinical and research interests to examine the neurological underpinnings of autism and expand treatment options for people across the spectrum. Specifically, Emily hopes to study the vestibular system in autism spectrum disorders, but knows that she needs to survive two years of medical school first! Congratulations, Emily!<\/p>\n

Israel Falade joined the Foss-Feig lab as a Summer Undergraduate Research Program (SURP) student, a highly competitive 10-week program at \u00a0Mount Sinai. Israel\u2019s summer project involved investigating the sensory consequences of motor action in adults with autism spectrum disorder using
electroencephalography (EEG). The culmination of the SURP program featured a poster presentation where Israel engaged with faculty, staff, and members of the public about his research findings.<\/p>\n

The Society of Biological Psychiatry holds an annual meeting in spring and this year\u2019s meeting occurred in New York, NY. The three-day conference featured talks, symposia, and posters that aimed to advance understanding and treatment of psychiatric disorders. Dr. Foss-Feig participated in a symposium discussing the use of electrophysiology in single-gene disorders to inform biomarker discovery for idiopathic ASD. Emily Isenstein and Sylvia Guillory presented posters on auditory habituation abnormalities in young adults with Phelan-Mcdermid Syndrome and atypical neural processes in psychosis prodrome with comorbid ASD,\u00a0respectively.<\/p>\n

On Thursday April 26th, The Mount Sinai Hospital hosted its 20th Child Health Research Day. This program is held annually and aims at introducing original posters and oral presentations in basic, translational, and clinical research related to the health and welfare of infants, children, and adolescents. This year, Victoria Baskett, Marta Migo, and Yian Zhang presented on some of our current lab projects. Victoria\u2019s research examined how children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Phelan-McDermid Syndrome show impaired attention to social stimuli, Marta presented on atypical motor preparation in children with ASD using the readiness potential neural response, and Yian\u2019s research investigated neural markers of \u00a0social orienting in autism using familiar and unfamiliar names.<\/p>\n

Clinical Research Coordinator Emily Isenstein will be attending the University of Rochester in the fall of 2018 as a part of the Medical Scientist Training Program to pursue an MD\/PhD dual degree. She plans to continue her involvement in the autism field and ultimately hopes to combine her clinical and research interests to examine the neurological underpinnings of autism and expand treatment options for people across the spectrum. Specifically, Emily hopes to study the vestibular system in autism spectrum disorders, but knows that she needs to survive two years of medical school first! Congratulations, Emily!<\/p>\n
