New genetic clues uncovered in largest study of families with multiple
UCLA Health researchers have published the largest-ever study of families with at least two children with autism, uncovering new risk genes and providing new insights into how genetics influence whether someone develops autism spectrum disorder. The new study, published July 28 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, also ...
Groundbreaking study connects genetic risk for autism to changes
Geschwind's study on autism, one of nine published in the May 24 issue of Science, builds on decades of his group's research profiling the genes that increase the susceptibility to autism spectrum disorder and defining the convergent molecular changes observed in the brains of individuals with autism. However, what drives these molecular ...
Researchers find key differences in brain development between autistic
All were participants in the MIND Institute's Autism Phenome Project (APP), one of the largest longitudinal autism studies in the world. The project includes the Girls with Autism Imaging of Neurodevelopment (GAIN) study, launched to increase the number of females represented in research. The researchers took MRI scans at up to four time ...
The Lancet Commission on the future of care and clinical research in autism
Affecting about 78 million people worldwide, autism is a condition of global importance because of its prevalence and the degree to which it can affect individuals and families. Autism awareness has grown monumentally in the past 20 years, yet most striking is that much more could be done to improve life outcomes for the highly heterogeneous group of people with autism. Such change will depend ...

Autism Research in 2022
Studies replicated this year showed that females with autism have a higher burden of rare genetic mutations. In addition, research is demonstrating that females with an autism diagnosis also show a higher level of "common" variations. 29,45 The effect of higher levels of common variation in females extends to even undiagnosed members of ASD-impacted families, demonstrating that females ...
Autism Breakthrough: New Treatment Significantly Improves Social Skills
A recent Tel Aviv University study found that pressure chamber therapy greatly improved social skills and the condition of the autistic brain. The research was carried out on autism animal models. The researchers discovered changes in the brain, including a decrease in neuroinflammation, which has been linked to autism.
