Analyzing children’s communications patterns may help with diagnosis and treatment of autism, a team of Stony Brook University researchers has found.
Starting prenatal vitamins even before pregnancy may cut risk of autism in high-risk families, UC Davis research has found.
Autism may not be a spectrum but may be better understood as several interrelated spectra, suggests a new Stony Brook University-led study.

A team of UCLA-led scientists has discovered important clues to what goes wrong in the brains of people with autism — a developmental disorder with no cure and for which scientists have no deep understanding of what causes it.
A detailed study of four mouse models of autism challenges the most common assumption about what goes wrong in brain circuits to cause disease symptoms.
The number of children in the United States diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder may be significantly higher than previously thought, according to a new University of Iowa analysis.
Boston University's ROAD Ahead Study supports high schoolers with autism as they transition into adulthood.
UO scientists have found brain cells needed for zebrafish to socialize, a discovery that could help establish the small fish as a model organism for advancing research on autism spectrum disorders and schizophrenia.
Children with autism have structural and functional abnormalities in the brain circuit that normally makes social interaction feel rewarding, according to a new study from the Stanford University School of Medicine.
