**Position Description**:
We are looking for a Clinical Research Project Assistant with excellent communication and organization skills to support our work for children and youth with various genetic variants associated with risk for autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders.

At SickKids Autism Research Unit (ARU), we run a clinic called Developmental Assessment of Genetically Susceptible Youth (DAGSY). Children (age 1 to 18 years) are referred to the DAGSY clinic for a developmental and psychiatric assessment because they have been identified as carriers of genetic variants that are known to increase risk for atypical development (autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability and other neurodevelopmental disorders).

At DAGSY, we combine full clinical service with several scientific studies focused on elucidating the full breadth of neurodevelopmental trajectories associated with these genetic variants, as well as factors modifying these outcomes. The clinical service is multidisciplinary and consists of a developmental, cognitive, and academic assessment, as well as a psychiatric evaluation, based on which we provide families with a clinical report and recommendations.
