Discovering translational biomarkers in neurodevelopmental disorders

Investment in drug development for neurodevelopmental disorders has suffered from recent failures in clinical trials that were based on promising preclinical findings. Here, we discuss development and validation of translational biomarkers of neurodevelopmental disorders that can enable more informative clinical experiments and translational success in these diseases.
