The National Alliance for Autism Research (NAAR)

The National Alliance for Autism Research (NAAR) is a not-for-profit organization that was established by parents who were alarmed at the paucity of funds available for autism research. Currently in its eleventh year of operation, NAAR has committed well over fourteen million dollars in grants, worldwide, for the purpose of investigating "the causes, prevention, effective treatments and, ultimately, cures for autism spectrum disorders". NAAR Fellowships, and the abstracts describing the work, were awarded to investigators from the University of Pittsburgh-Carnegie Mellon Collaborative Program of Excellence in Autism. This NIH-funded center, as well as those others around the country that will be featured in future editions of ASQ, may be thought of as training grounds for future scientists and clinicians in the field of autism spectrum disorders.
