New Research Center at UCI
12.18.12
Exciting news for families and those affected by autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders. Former PIMCO COO, William Thompson and his wife, Nancy, through their family foundation, along with the Children and Families Commission of Orange County just gave a generous donation of $14.8 million to create a Center for Autism and Neurodevelopmental disorders of Southern California, part of UC Irvine.
There’s nothing like it in SoCal, it will be a nationally recognized treatment and research center leading an innovative approach to research and treating a wide spectrum of autism related disorders. The Center will change autism treatment and research through an innovative multidisciplinary approach encompassing clinical trials and care, research, education, awareness, and community support. Chapman University and CHOC Children’s will also be involved in The Center for Autism.
