As always, I am indebted to David Elkins for the many services he provides to our Department as the local statistical resource, specialized psychometrician, our Department’s IRB representative extraordinaire and, especially, as the keeper of our Department’s webpages. In this latter capacity, David flatters me with the continued opportunity he provides me to welcome everyone to our updated newsletter! We are thriving: our clinical care is superb; our trainees are enthused and, not surprisingly, exceeding very ambitious expectations for learning and clinical competence; and our scholarly contributions are having a deservedly high impact. One recent scholarly development, among many that can be selected, is the Special Issue of Progress in NeuroPsychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry that was Guest Edited by, and included contributions from, members of our Department; the issue was devoted to Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Our contributions included a critical review of issues pertaining to diagnosis, symptom ratings and the design of clinical trials; an updated review of biological mechanisms underlying deficits in recognizing and producing facial expressions in persons with ASD; and discussion of metabotropic functions of the NMDA receptor and role a specific subtype of this receptor plays in the pathogenesis of ASD. Additionally, Dr. Frank Castora, a member of the school’s graduate program in biomedical sciences contributed an article on mitochondrial abnormalities in ASD. Thus, I would like to acknowledge and thank Drs. Maria Urbano, Nicole Kreiser, Kathrin Hartmann, and Jennifer Flaherty and Ms. Jessica A. Burket, a PhD candidate in the graduate program of biomedical sciences, for their impressive achievements.

As always, I am indebted to David Elkins for the many services he provides to

our Department as the local statistical resource, specialized psychometrician,

our Department’s IRB representative extraordinaire and, especially, as the

keeper of our Department’s webpages. In this latter capacity, David flatters me

with the continued opportunity he provides me to welcome everyone to our

updated newsletter! We are thriving: our clinical care is superb; our trainees are

enthused and, not surprisingly, exceeding very ambitious expectations for

learning and clinical competence; and our scholarly contributions are having a

deservedly high impact. One recent scholarly development, among many that

can be selected, is the Special Issue of Progress in NeuroPsychopharmacology and

Biological Psychiatry that was Guest Edited by, and included contributions from,

members of our Department; the issue was devoted to Autism Spectrum

Disorders (ASD). Our contributions included a critical review of issues

pertaining to diagnosis, symptom ratings and the design of clinical trials; an

updated review of biological mechanisms underlying deficits in recognizing and

producing facial expressions in persons with ASD; and discussion of

metabotropic functions of the NMDA receptor and role a specific subtype of

this receptor plays in the pathogenesis of ASD. Additionally, Dr. Frank

Castora, a member of the school’s graduate program in biomedical sciences

contributed an article on mitochondrial abnormalities in ASD. Thus, I would

like to acknowledge and thank Drs. Maria Urbano, Nicole Kreiser, Kathrin

Hartmann, and Jennifer Flaherty and Ms. Jessica A. Burket, a PhD candidate in

the graduate program of biomedical sciences, for their impressive

achievements. This Special Issue highlights the national impact and

prominence of our faculty and Autism Spectrum Disorders Program!
