About FASDSG

Welcome to the website of the Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders Study Group (FASDSG). The FASDSG has a membership of approximately 425 clinicians and researchers. The binding interests of our members are the desire to fully understand the etiology of fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS), describe the characteristics of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders at multiple levels, and devise ways to improve the lives of children, adolescents, and adults with FAS and other alcohol-related disabilities.
