Antonio Hardan is a Professor actively engaged in psychiatric education and autism research. His current teaching responsibilities include:
- PSYC 290: Teaching in Psychiatry (Autumn, Winter, Spring)
- PSYC 370: Medical Scholars Research (Autumn, Winter, Spring)
- PSYC 199: Undergraduate Research, Independent Study, or Directed Reading (Autumn, Winter, Spring)
- PSYC 299: Directed Reading in Psychiatry (Autumn, Winter, Spring)
- PSYC 399: Graduate Research (Autumn, Winter, Spring)

His research focuses on autism spectrum disorder and neurodevelopmental conditions, with specialized expertise in sleep disturbances, anxiety comorbidities, restricted and repetitive behaviors, and social skills interventions. Key methodological approaches include randomized controlled trials, meta-analyses, transdiagnostic frameworks, and development of novel assessment tools like the Autism Symptom Dimensions Questionnaire.
Analysis of his 2025 publications reveals dominant trends in transdiagnostic analysis of autism symptoms, network-based approaches to comorbidity, and precision medicine applications. His work consistently addresses heterogeneity through subtyping methodologies, leverages multi-country datasets, and integrates AI-derived performance measures for social cognition assessment. Notable themes include pharmacological trials (pregnenolone), behavioral interventions (Developmental Reciprocity Treatment), and biomarker exploration for clinical trial optimization.
