This presentation focuses on tools that caregivers can use to encourage communication development for individuals at early stages of development.
Our expert panel discusses the issues around caring for young children with Fragile X syndrome, including speech development, integrating with their typical siblings, occupational therapy, behavioral issues, and much much more.
Early Check screening for Fragile X will give researchers important information about how Fragile X affects infants and toddlers before any signs or symptoms are noticed by parents or doctors. It provides very early developmental assessments and intervention. It will also help prove whether early diagnosis and intervention have long-term benefits for children with Fragile X syndrome.
These findings provide preliminary information about the early language learning environment and support for the feasibility of utilizing an automated vocal analysis system within the FXS population that could ease data collection and further our understanding of the emergence of language development.
