Autism CRC's three longitudinal datasets provide valuable insights into the health, wellbeing, education and employment experiences of autistic individuals across the lifespan:
- Longitudinal Study of Australian Students (LASA)
- Study of Australian School Leavers with Autism (SASLA)
- Australian Longitudinal Study of Autistic Adults (ALSAA)
We would like to thank all our participants, who have contributed to positively transforming the lives of autistic people across the lifespan and the spectrum.
Researchers can now apply to use the datasets for approved research purposes.
In addition to the Longitudinal Studies, researchers can also apply to access data from the Australian Autism Biobank, which consists of comprehensive biological samples and data from almost 3,000 autistic and non-autistic children and their parents.
