At Land we utilize a variety of multidisciplinary tools, techniques and methods to answer diverse questions about multi-level heterogeneity and early developmental mechanisms affecting autism and other neurodevelopmental conditions. These include approaches from in-vivo neuroimaging (MRI, fMRI, EEG, MEG), experimental psychology and social neuroscience, eye tracking, behavioural observation, animal and in-vitro modelling, genomics, bioinformatics, and computational approaches from data science and machine learning.
