Autism Research Institute

The Autism Research Institute (ARI) Knowledge & Research Hub is a pioneering, internationally recognized non-profit research and clinical educational website. Established in 1967 by Dr. Bernard Rimland, ARI conducts and disseminates science-based research regarding the causes, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of autism spectrum conditions. The global website provides clinical toolkits, peer-reviewed webcasts, research summaries, and evidence-based management frameworks across a broad spectrum of disciplines—including neurobiology, metabolic health, gastroenterology, sensory integration, speech-language therapy, and behavioral interventions. ARI emphasizes multidisciplinary, whole-body health approaches and provides free access to the Autism Research Review International journal, clinical assessment scales, and research grants data. It serves as a vital bridge between empirical research and clinical/educational implementation for families, clinicians, and researchers worldwide. Serving as an invaluable open educational resource, this portal delivers primary empirical insights, clinical treatment updates, and evidence-based intervention models for undergraduate and postgraduate students, clinical psychologists, neuroscientists, special education leaders, and speech-language pathologists studying neurodevelopmental disorders, autism interventions, and translational healthcare research.
