The session covered the main characteristics of this condition and some scientific studies being carried out at the University of Aveiro, which aim to meet some of the needs felt by families and the autistic community.

 Autism
Universidade de Aveiro, Portugal
2022/05/26 - 2022/05/26 Language difficulties are increasingly present in many families. These difficulties affect how children interact, communicate, and relate to others, often making them misunderstood by society. It is urgent to know, to identify, and to intervene to help. Marisa Lousada and Tatiana Pereira discussed the fundamental role that Speech and Language Therapy can play in these children's lives.
