    A new autism research clinic hopes to improve diagnosis services


    The Auckland clinic opened this week and offers genetic testing for autism diagnosis.

    University of Auckland's Dr. Jessie Jacobsen is behind the research, and says it's a huge step forward for availability.

    She says their main aim is to improve the diagnosis process, which contributes to better long-term outcomes.
