Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

ASD is a neurobiological disorder that affects the configuration of the nervous system and brain functioning, giving rise to difficulties in two main areas: communication and social interaction and flexibility of thought and behavior.

The clinical manifestations of ASD vary greatly among those who have it, as do their intellectual functioning and language abilities. However, all of them share characteristics fundamentally in two areas of personal development and functioning: communication and social interaction and flexibility of behavior and thinking.
