Using cortical organoids from individuals with autism, researchers tracked gene activity over development. Early ...

A new study published in Nature in the paper, “Developmental convergence and divergence in human stem cell models of autism,” provides new insights by demonstrating that while different mutations ...

UCLA Health researchers have created a comprehensive map showing how eight different genetic mutations associated with autism spectrum disorder affect early brain development, providing new insights ...

Hundreds of genes have been linked to autism, but knowing which ones matter most has been a challenge. Researchers at the University of Aberdeen combined data from thousands of developing human brain ...

Researchers reveal that adults with autism show brain patterns for body part perception similar to typical adults, despite behavioral differences Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), a neurodevelopmental ...

The symptoms of autism may not be obvious until a child is a toddler, but the disorder itself appears to begin well before birth. Brain tissue taken from children who died and also happened to have ...

LAWRENCE — A researcher from the University of Kansas Life Span Institute is part of an international group that recently published a comprehensive review of differences in sensory processing for ...

A team of researchers from the University of Aberdeen has uncovered, for the first time, how genes linked to autism and intellectual disability may influence early brain development. Subscribe to our ...

Epigenetic changes during early brain development, and the complexities of autism. Also, how bacteria learn to parry antibiotics, the subterranean burp that shook the Island of Santorini, and new ...
