BRIDGES IN BARCELONA - Forging links between the biomedical and

autism conference in Barcelona, Spain. Dr Eric Schopler,
founder of the TEACCH programme in North Carolina; a leading Spanish
TEACCH proponent, Dr Juan Martos, and a prominent Spanish
LOVAAS practitioner, Dr Asún Puche, explain why
educational methods are such powerful tools for bringing about
improvements in children with autism. Adam Feinstein, Editor of
LOOKING UP, spoke to William
Shaw, Eric Schopler, Juan Martos, Asún
Puche, Isabel Bayonas
(president of APNA - the Spanish
national association of parents of autistic children) and Kalle
Reichelt, the Norwegian expert on the opioid peptide theory of
