What is required to end the autism epidemic?
This talk will give an overview of the field and key areas that must be addressed in order to end autism. A full range of autism theories, environmental suspects, and potential biomarkers will be discussed. Peter will highlight key items and sequences he considers to be the most promising for autism recovery and prevention. The autism epidemic will end, one household at a time, as parents take action to protect their children and themselves from the primary environmental factors. (See description on the Autism One website)
