Collaborative relationships in working in low and middle income (LAMI) countries present both opportunities and challenges. This talk will address the importance of establishing international partnerships between U.S. and non-U.S. researchers in the ASD research field, how this potentially benefits scientific research in LAMI countries, what are the opportunities and how they can be exploited, and lastly, what are the challenges and how they can be mitigated. An ongoing collaboration between U.S. and argentine researchers will be used to exemplify these issues.
