A new survey reveals a striking disconnect in how Americans think about autism research. While nearly everyone agrees that studying the autistic brain is essential, most people are unaware that brain ...

New research from the University of Minnesota Medical School suggests that different genetic forms of autism may lead to similar patterns in brain activity and behavior. The findings were recently ...

Scientists have developed and tested a deep-learning model that could support clinicians by providing accurate results and clear, explainable insights – including a model-estimated probability score ...

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. Their work helps ...

Scientists are uncovering a surprising connection between autism and ADHD that goes deeper than labels. Instead of diagnoses, it’s the severity of autism-like traits that seems to shape how the brain ...

Two Miami researchers have learned how to “rescue” malfunctioning brain cells linked to autism spectrum disorder by restoring the electrical signals that allow neurons to communicate. Their ...

The gut brain axis is an important relationship very few people discuss or even understand. It is composed of a two-way communication system between your gut (digestive system) and your brain which ...
