- She has highlighted the need for sex-balanced studies in autism, underscoring the disparities in identification and support for individuals assigned female at birth, and advocating for clinical suggestions to address these gaps.
- The findings from her longitudinal studies reveal critical insights into the structural and functional brain changes associated with autism, including the role of the amygdala in anxiety and the impact of development on autism symptom severity, suggesting that a more nuanced understanding of autism is necessary for effective intervention.
