Autism Research is an international journal which publishes research relevant to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and closely related neurodevelopmental disorders. We focus on genetic, neurobiological, immunological, epidemiological and psychological mechanisms and how these influence developmental processes in ASD. We welcome a variety of article types including short reports, theoretical papers, clinical trials, and more.

The journal is co-owned and supported by The International Society for Autism Research (INSAR) and Wiley.

Wiley holds the deep belief that scientific excellence cannot be achieved without inclusion and equity. We fully acknowledge that much more needs to be done and we are dedicated to doing better so we can all be better. As an initial step, Wiley is a signatory of the Joint Committee for Action on Inclusivity and Diversity in Publishing, and Autism Research is committed to supporting this vital work.
