This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. Neuroimaging research is beginning to characterize several important ways in which the brains of persons with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) develop and function differently. ASD is a heterogeneous disorder, with individual differences in severity of symptoms, various aspects of behavior and cognitive functioning. This project will use MRI to study the brain anatomy and function, correlating neuroanatomy and function with differences in symptomatology and behavior, in order to enhance our understanding of the brain-bases of the ASDs. This research is guided by the belief that understanding the fundamental mechanisms that cause ASDs will allow for the development of better interventions and treatments.

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中的一个 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 神经影像学研究开始描述自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）患者大脑发育和功能不同的几种重要方式。 ASD是一种异质性疾病，在症状的严重程度、行为和认知功能的各个方面存在个体差异。 该项目将使用MRI来研究大脑解剖和功能，将神经解剖和功能与行为学和行为学的差异相关联，以增强我们对ASD大脑基础的理解。 这项研究的指导思想是，了解导致ASD的基本机制将有助于开发更好的干预和治疗方法。
