The project is framed as the first prospective cohort study to examine autism outcomes in HIV-exposed uninfected children and validate eye-tracking markers in a low- and middle-income country. The name Alama reflects the study's focus on autism biomarkers and scalable detection methods. The Alama Project is a prospective cohort study in western Kenya focused on autism outcomes and eye-tracking neurobehavioural markers in young children born to mothers with HIV. Alama recruits children who completed the Tabiri Study and evaluates them between 24 and 48 months of age.
