I cannot wait until the autism community tracks this line of thinking back to pitolisant! I think there are some exciting developments on the horizon. https://openheartedrebel.com/2017/04/15/groundbreaking-research-autism-histamine-inflammation-mast-cell-activation/

The study of histamine has been attracting quite a bit of attention over the last few years — and not just in relation to seasonal allergies or insect bites.

The Wall Lab at Harvard Medical School is months away from completing a mobile system for rapid detection of autism and needs community involvement. If you have a child between the ages of 14 months and 7 years, please visit https://puzzlemouse.hms.harvard.edu and considering joining their important research.

We are seeking participation from caregivers of children, 7 years and younger, who have recently received full evaluations and a diagnosis of autism to help validate our new screening approach.

Dear friends,
We launched Healing Thresholds in 2006 as a free resource to help those whose lives are touched by autism. We have been gratified to see it grow and to receive your feedback and stories. The time has come for our team to move on to other projects.

We will be donating the content of Healing Thresholds to the Autism Science Foundation (also found on FB: https://www.facebook.com/autismsciencefd?fref=ts). This is an organization that does good work and has the resources to invest in integrating Healing Thresholds content into their own Web site. They have assured us that they will not charge for the information.

The transition will be gradual, but should happen this summer. You may receive emails from them instead of us. As always, if you do not wish to receive the emails, merely unsubscribe and your wishes will be followed.

Thank you for letting us into your lives,
Lara
Scottie
Dan

We support families impacted by autism and fund autism research - autismsciencefoundation.org
