Ep. 190: A Strand of Hope: Using Hair to Detect Autism

APR 20, 202620 MIN

Description

What if a single strand of hair could help detect autism earlier? We sit down with David Elkin, PhD, VP, Clinical Liaison and Advocacy, LinusBio, to explore a breakthrough approach to autism detection using hair-based biomarkers. This emerging technology aims to close the gap between early signs and formal diagnosis, helping children access intervention sooner. It’s a conversation about science, timing and what earlier answers could mean for families navigating autism risk.Watch the episode on YouTube.Featuring: David Elkin, PhD, VP, Clinical Liaison and Advocacy, LinusBioHost/Producer: Carol VassarViews expressed by guests do not necessarily reflect the views of the host or management.  Subscribe, review or let your voice be heard at NemoursWellBeyond.org.
