About the MOSAIC Lab

The Maximizing Opportunities to Scale Autism Interventions in Communities (MOSAIC) Lab, led by Dr. Diondra Straiton-Webster, is housed within the Department of Psychology at the University of Miami. Our research uses implementation science to improve community-based autism services in publicly funded settings like schools and Part C early intervention agencies. Most of this work focuses on caregiver-mediated naturalistic developmental behavioral interventions (CM-NDBIs), a newer class of autism interventions that focus on social communication skill development in young children. Our research takes place in many service contexts, including the Medicaid system, the community mental health system, the early intervention system, and public elementary schools.
