Alison Lane: We are excited to be here today and share some of the information that primarily Chelsea has been working on with me over the last year. I thought I would start by telling you a little bit about our work here at the Ohio State University. Our lab is called the SenSA Laboratory which stands for Sensory motor Signs of Autism.
