Dr. Christina Gurnett and Dr. Joseph Dougherty cordially invite you to an evening for the community to learn about current research on neurodevelopment disorders.

The WashU IDDRC is one of only 15 Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Research Centers (IDDRCs) funded by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. Our Center brings together top-notch clinicians and investigators and leverages Washington University’s state-of-the-art resources to advance our understanding and lessen the impact of intellectual and developmental disabilities—including autism, cerebral palsy, ADHD and epilepsy. Over 80 dedicated WashU IDDRC research teams are committed to discovering the genetic and environmental causes of IDD to develop novel treatment and prevention strategies. We are committed to working collaboratively with families and patient advocacy groups to guide our mission.

This event is open to all ages and will include a sensory friendly environment.
