Dedicated to redefining therapeutic possibilities for neurodevelopmental conditions.
Confluence's mission is to advance all research in Autism and Fragile X Syndrome and bring to market a solution that treats core social and communication impairments.
We understand the profound impact of being able to communicate and socially interact has on everyday life. We want to change the way people think about treating Fragile X and Autism — and how they will administer or direct therapies in the future.
