Jason Yi, an assistant professor of neuroscience at WashU Medicine, is enthusiastic about his latest grant for multiple reasons. 

Yi has secured a $400,000 pilot grant from the Eagles Autism Foundation to promote a new strategy for addressing autism spectrum disorder. 

This nonprofit was founded by Jeffrey Lurie, proprietor of the Super Bowl LIX-winning Philadelphia Eagles, and is committed to generating funds for autism research and support initiatives. 

Interestingly, the Eagles are also Yi’s preferred NFL team, and the Philadelphia native cherishes numerous fond memories of watching the Eagles alongside family and friends.
