Hartwick Professor Receives Autism Research Grant

Hartwick College Visiting Assistant Professor of Biology Dr. Anthony Russo has received another grant from the Autism Research Institute in the amount of $7,040.

This funding will allow Russo to continue his studies on the role of biomarkers in the etiology of autism. The grant monies will be used, in part, to fund projects which involve cooperative research with undergraduate students at Hartwick College.

This grant is Hartwick's sixth from the ARI since the fall of 2011. The Institute has supported research at the college since 2009 by funding twelve projects for a total of more than $85,000.
