We are pleased to announce our first official Autism CRC Research Co-production Partners: Autism Spectrum Australia (Aspect), Macquarie University and University of Southern Queensland.

These organisations have demonstrated a sustained commitment to quality research co-production, producing translatable outcomes relevant to the needs of the community.

The Australian Autism Biobank is a long awaited resource that will aid in increasing our knowledge of the autism spectrum and co-occurring conditions.

We had more than 2,900 autistic and non-autistic children and adults participate, from across Australia. We collected biological samples and questionnaire data.

On Thursday 1 November we officially launched the Sylvia Rodger Academy.

The Academy will deliver nationwide programs that are co-designed and developed with autistic adults, with the aim of empowering autistic adults to contribute to policy and practice impacting upon their lives.

Together with our participants, we continue to deliver our program milestones while positively influencing the way autism research is conducted and its impact in the community.

The Guideline aims to create greater consistency in diagnostic practices across the country to ensure individuals on the autism spectrum and their families can receive the optimal clinical care.

The community has been requesting a national and consistent guideline for autism assessment and diagnosis for many years, and we are pleased to release a guideline that responds to this need.

We have launched our Autism CRC Knowledge Centre, which is a single online gateway to autism resources, tools and publications available on our website.

From research papers to resources for the autism community, service providers, educators and clinicians, the Knowledge Centre is full of useful, easy-to-find information and tools.

Autistic people empowered to discover and use their diverse strengths and interests, with our mission to motivate, facilitate and translate collaborative autism research across the life span, underpinned by inclusive practices.
