The Autism Research Institute is Recruiting Families to Participate in a Harvard Medical School Study

ARI is Searching for Brothers and Sisters with ASD

From the announcement:

Participate in Research: Seeking families who have boy and girl siblings diagnosed with ASD

Researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, and the Autism Research Institute are investigating whether the reason why boys are more affected than girls is related to differences in intestinal bacteria.  

We are seeking families to participate in this study who have both boy and girl siblings with autism. These families will be mailed stool kits with instructions and will be asked to collect samples. A brief medical history will be taken.
