Emily Ferguson, Ph.D.<\/strong>, is a postdoctoral academic researcher and clinician within\u00a0Stanford University\u2019s Autism and Developmental Disorders Research Program<\/a>\u00a0within the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences. She earned her doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology from the University of California Santa Barbara and completed her clinical internship at the University of California Los Angeles. Dr. Ferguson\u2019s research focuses on advancing understanding of mechanisms of challenging behaviors in autistic youth and adults to inform treatment development. Her work takes a comprehensive perspective, integrating methods from implementation science to improve the accessibility and quality of clinical care for underserved autistic populations, especially those with higher support needs (or \u201cprofound autism\u201d). She is also interested in developing methods to improve self-regulation in individuals with profound autism to effectively manage self-injurious behaviors and aggression. Dr. Ferguson is currently supporting research in the\u00a0Preschool Autism Lab, and exploring profiles of challenging behaviors with the\u00a0Program for Psychometrics and Measurement-Based Care<\/a>\u00a0in a diverse range of autistic and non-autistic youth to inform treatment approaches.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>Take the knowledge quiz<\/h4>\n
