Current State of Autism Biomedical Research

This presentation will summarize some of the recent advances in the biochemical understanding of autism and biomedical treatments for it. Topics include sulfation, oxidative stress, mitochondrial function, intestinal permeability, and more.

James B. Adams, PhD, PhD

Prof. Adams research is focused on the biomedical causes of autism and how to treat them. His research includes nutritional status (vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, amino acids), metabolic status (methylation, glutathione, sulfation, oxidative stress, neurotransmitters), toxic metals/chelation, and gastrointestinal bacteria.
