Major Medical Announcement to be Delivered at International Autism Conference Study On Autistic Children Show Significant Clinical Improvements

US Autism & Asperger Association, Inc. (USAAA) holds its annual International Autism and Asperger Conference in Denver, Colorado, August 8-11, 2007. Today, USAAA announced that a major medical announcement will be presented at the conference regarding a study on autistic children that showed significant clinical improvements in many core areas including language, socialization, cognitive awareness, and decreased irritability. This intervention has been used with clinical success in several other chronic neurological conditions including cerebral palsy, fetal alcohol syndrome, closed head injury, and stroke.

This is an incredible opportunity for parents, caregivers, and professionals to attend one of the most comprehensive autism conferences in the world,” explained L.P. Kaplan, PhD, USAAA Founder and Executive Director. “Attendees will receive information that will empower them to help their children, family, patients, friends, and others touched by autism. They will meet with the physicians who are treating more autism patients than anyone else in the world, and will learn from educators who are providing interventions that have successfully improved our children, and in many cases they have recovered.”

Some of the world’s most renowned leading autism experts will present new interventions and new research in both education and medicine. The conference is co-hosted by Autism Society of Boulder County (ASBC) and will be held at the Hyatt Regency Tech Center - Denver.

Theresa Wrangham, ASBC’s Founder added, “We are thrilled to present such significant findings to the world. It is very exciting to host USAAA in Colorado and bring cutting edge information from leaders in biomedical and behavioral treatments of autism to our community.”

Dr. Temple Grandin, Dr. Arthur Krigsman, Dr. Mark Geier, David Geier and Shannon Kenitz will be featured speakers.
