This weekend’s 1 in 31 guest is Dr. Alex Kolevzon. Dr. Kolevzon is the Clinical Director of the Seaver Autism Center at Mount Sinai Health System. He joins us today to talk about the CDC’s latest estimate that 1 in 31 children in the United States are identified as having autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Dr. Kolevzon suggests a number of possible reasons why this statistic has been on the rise. He also discusses various research challenges and approaches for studying individuals on the autism spectrum. Dr. Kolevzon suggests the prevalence rate may stabilize around 1 in 100 individuals, rather than the current 1 in 31 figure, suggesting some correction in diagnostic practices may occur in the future.
