Seattle Children's Innovative Technologies Lab: Advancing AutismDevelopmental Disability Research with Everyday Tech

---

Welcome to the Seattle Children’s Innovative Technologies Lab SCITL, led by Dr. Frederick Shic. We are committed to using and advancing everyday technologies that can improve the lives of children with autism spectrum disorder, other developmental disabilities, and beyond. Our work encompasses both theoretical research and practical applications med at enhancing diagnostic precision, developing novel therapies, and deepening our understanding across an individual's lifespan.

SCITL is dedicated to bringing state-of-the-art transformative technologies into everyday use for various purposes. This includes cutting-edge biomarker development through eye tracking and near-infrared spectroscopy techniques to monitor the impact of treatments, decipher developmental and behavioral diversity, and predict clinical outcomes in real-time and retrospectively.

We are also pioneering innovative technology like mobile applications, virtual reality systems, robots, smart toys, and video games to revolutionize sensing capabilities and therapeutic interventions. Our focus is on supporting equitable research that actively engages a diverse group of participants and staff.

Key areas of study encompass:

• Biomarker Development: Using eye tracking and near-infrared spectroscopy to identify patterns that indicate developmental delays or conditions like Autism Spectrum Disorder ASD.

• Next Generation Sensing Therapeutics: Developing advanced technologies tlored for infants, children, and beyond.

Our research studies m to leverage technology in groundbreaking ways, offering insights into diagnostics and interventions while ensuring privacy protection.

Participate in Research Studies

• Facial Privacy Study: A study targeting clinicians with ADOS-2 coding experience to explore how privacy mechanisms can be applied to video sessions for remote coding.

• Discovering Eye Tracking Biomarkers of ASD: An endeavor to develop a tool that uses viewing patterns during the observation of child-oriented videos to detect developmental issues, including ASD.

Explore Other Studies

• Kleinhans Lab ABC-CT collaborator: A collaborative project focusing on specific aspects related to autism spectrum disorder.

Stay updated with our latest news and join us in transforming pediatric healthcare through innovative technology.
