April is Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month! Did you know that research continues to uncover the relationship between autism and sleep? Learn more about these links and explore research on sleep and autism from these articles published in the journal SLEEP:
- Sleep architecture is associated with core symptom severity in autism spectrum disorder
- Dyscoordination of non-rapid eye movement sleep oscillations in autism spectrum disorder
- Investigating longitudinal associations between parent reported sleep in early childhood and teacher reported executive functioning in school-aged children with autism
- Reduced sleep pressure in young children with autism
The SRS has an upcoming Virtual Seminar Series titled “Sleep & Clinical Correlates in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder” with Dr. Megan L. Wenzell (Alder). Join us on Tuesday, May 21 at 2:00 pm (ET) to learn about this important research. RSVP today!
