We are delighted to announce that the latest presenter in the series of
monthly one-day online autism conferences on the Awares Conference Centre,
run by Autism Cymru - Wales's pioneering national charity for autism - is
Dr Connie Kasari.
Connie's brilliant paper on education is available to read here right now
once you register at www.awares.org/conferences and she herself will be
online all day on Tuesday, July 23, 2013. Please feel free to put all your
autism-related questions directly to Connie in the discussion forum on the
site on July 23. You can also, of course, exchange views with one another
in the forum before Connie logs on. I very much hope you enjoy the event!
Simply click on the Discussion button and take advantage of this unique
chance to connect directly with one of the great world authorities on
educating children with autism. This online conference is open to
everyone, so please let your friends, colleagues and networks know about
the event.
Dr Connie Kasari is Professor in the Human Development and Psychology
programme in UCLA's School of Education as well as Professor in the
Division of Child Psychiatry. She has supervised the doctoral training of
nearly 40 PhD students and the research of 15 post-doctoral fellows. Dr
Kasari's research has focused on social and communicative development in
typical and atypical children. She has many funded research projects
involving the development of novel interventions for children with autism
primarily using randomized controlled clinical trial designs. Her work is
increasingly centred in school settings with a focus on under-served,
under-represented, and under-resourced populations of children with autism.
Prior to her appointment in Education, she was a post-doctoral fellow with
Dr Marian Sigman, collaborating on a number of research studies on autism
and Down syndrome. Dr Kasari received her doctorate in education from the
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1985. She completed a
post-doctoral fellowship in child development at UCLA prior to joining the
UCLA faculty in 1990.
