Dr. Genova receives NIH K18 award to advance her autism research in transition-age youth

(Kessler Foundation) "Job interviews are especially challenging for young people with autism spectrum disorders who have difficulties with social interactions, said Dr. Genova. "Developing ways to help them deal with these challenges is important to their ability to contribute their talents to the workplace, and reap the personal, social, and economic benefits of employment. This award will bring us closer to the goal of improving the outlook for jobseekers with autism."
