Join us for an unparalleled professional development opportunity in Launceston from May 8th to 10th, 2024, presented by the Global Autism Interactive Network (GAIN). Under the prestigious auspices of Weill Cornell Medicine, New York, part of the esteemed Weill Cornell Medical College, this workshop promises to deepen your proficiency with the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule-2nd Edition (ADOS-2).

 We are honoured to host Professor Stephen M. Kanne, Ph.D., ABPP (CN), and Dr. Kourtney Christopher, Ph.D., leading experts in autism assessment from GAIN. Their work continues to illuminate the path of understanding and diagnosing autism, employing methodologies that have evolved from the very cradle of ADOS-2's inception.

 Weill Cornell Medicine, an institution renowned for its contribution to medical science and education, served as the fertile ground where Catherine Lord, the pioneering developer of the ADOS, expanded the horizons of autism research. Her tenure at Weill Cornell was marked by groundbreaking developments and enhancements to the ADOS, through rigorous research and dedicated staff development. The legacy of Catherine Lord's work and her direct influence on the ADOS-2 resonate deeply within the fabric of GAIN's training programs. Participants will not only gain from the advanced knowledge of our presenters but also from the rich historical context that underpins the ADOS-2, enriched by Lord's innovations and research ethos.

 This training is more than an educational endeavor; it is an immersion into the legacy of a tool that has shaped the landscape of autism diagnosis worldwide. Be part of a professional gathering that bridges historical innovation with contemporary expertise, all within the legacy of Weill Cornell Medicine and the pioneering spirit of Catherine Lord.

 Seize this opportunity to enhance your practice with the ADOS-2, informed by a deep understanding of its roots and the brilliance of those who have contributed to its development. This event is a must-attend forpsychologists committed to excellence in autism assessment and eager to connect with the rich history and future of this essential diagnostic tool.
