Research

Clinicians at Seattle Children’s are trying to learn more about Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and to examine the effects of an investigational medication, called GWP42003-P (a cannabidiol oral solution). We are conducting this study to look at whether or not this medicine helps communication, social skills, and patterns of behavior in children and adolescents with ASD. If your child is aged between 6 and 17 years, and has a diagnosis of ASD and episodes of irritability, please feel free to contact our study coordinator, Stacy Riffle, at 206-987-7502 or email SCACstudies@seattlechildrens.org to find out more.

CARR Study (COVID-Associated Risk and Resilience)

Researchers at Seattle Children’s want to learn about the impact of COVID-19 on the emotional health of children and teens. This research study is for kids and parents.

Research is always voluntary!

This study might be a good fit for you if your child or teen is between 8 and 14 years old, and has autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), anxiety, or none of these.

If you decide to take part in the research study, you and your child would fill out online surveys every 6 months for 2 years. Surveys focus on children’s feelings and behaviors, and on the ways COVID-19 might affect them.

Families who take part can choose to enter drawings for gift cards to thank them for their time.

 To take part in the CARR research study or for more information, please contact our study team at CARRstudy@seattlechildrens.org or by phone at 206-884-8256.
