Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Clinical Trial - Lismore

Do you have an autism diagnosis and an interest in research?

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition characterised by impaired social communication and restricted or repetitive behaviours. Individuals with ASD often also experience difficulties in processing sensory information and may have heightened sensitivity to external stimuli. The thinking and information processing style characteristic of autism is associated with heightened levels of anxiety that can impact many aspects of daily life. These challenges may significantly impact quality of life and participation in the community.   

• Researchers are seeking adults aged 18 and above who have been diagnosed with ASD and also experience anxiety. 
• Six in-person appointments are required at the Clinical Trials Centre, Lismore campus, over 15 weeks.  
• Blood and urine tests are also required and participants will need to complete questionnaires. 
• Gift vouchers provided as payment for time and inconvenience. 

This clinical trial has approval from the Bellberry Human Research Ethics Committee, HREC number: 2024-09-1241
