CliniKids is Telethon Kids Institute’s first team integrating their world-class research with a clinical service. At the heart of its innovative model are children with developmental delay and/or an autism diagnosis, and their families.
One of the unique aspects of CliniKids, based in Perth in Western Australia, is the integration of clinical services with cutting-edge research. Our exceptional team of researchers, led by Professor Andrew Whitehouse, work in collaboration with our clinicians to give the community access to the world's best evidence-based therapies.
Our research focuses on:
- young children with developmental delay
- therapies for children on the autism spectrum
- adolescent and adult outcomes
- autism policy in Australia
- biological research
