Researchers indicate that brain scans show signs of autism which could eventually support behavior-based diagnosis.
Researchers find video-based teaching can help autistic teens learn and use important social skills.
Immune system activation of the mother during pregnancy can disrupt neurodevelopment in her offspring, a new study shows.
A new study suggests children with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome may be misdiagnosed with autism due to the social impairments associated with their developmental delays.
Mutations of a gene associated with some forms of autism in humans can hinder the correct growth and connectivity of neurons in mice. This understanding allowed researchers to restore proper neuronal growth in the mice.
According to a new study, children with autism and average IQs consistently demonstrate better math skills than their non-autistic peers with a similar IQ range.
A new study finds that between ages 3 and 10, children with ASD exhibit distinct brain chemical changes which differ from children with developmental delays and those considered to undergo typical neurodevelopment.
Researchers have developed a new quantitative screening method for the diagnosis and longitudinal tracking of autism in children.
Drawing on more than 30 years of research, a new study reports no association between pre-natal exposure to low levels of mercury and ASD in offspring.
Researchers have found full genome sequencing by examining the entire DNA code of individuals with ASD and their families. The findings look at the wide range of genetic factors associated with ASD.
Researchers discover IVF treatments for the most severe forms of male infertility are associated with an increased risk of neurodevelopmental disorders in children.
Researchers report RORA, a novel candidate gene for autism, regulates a large number of other genes associated with ASD.
