Our school readiness study is looking for children entering kindergarten this fall! If you have a child who is interested in participating in research and becoming an honorary scientist with us, contact us below.

We are currently recruiting for our research study looking at school readiness and academic functioning in young children with and without ASD. We are looking for children entering kindergarten this fall. This study is led by Dr. Sophy Kim at the Center for Autism and the Developing Brain at Weill Cornell Medicine.

The participation in the research will involve a one day visit to either our office in Westchester or our Upper East Side location at the beginning and end of kindergarten. The children will be tested for early literacy and math skills and executive functioning. The visit will be about 2-3 hours with fun games and puzzles measuring your child's cognitive abilities and school readiness as well as a short EEG session. You will receive up to 200 dollars for participating!

Please contact us if you are interested in participating, have any questions, or would like to hear more about our research!
