The hallmarks of autism

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2022
I suggest that the current study of autism is problematic, due to: (1) its failure to pursue a medical model of disease causation, with protocols for differential diagnoses of causes; (2) a notable incidence of unrecognized false positive diagnoses in children; (3) the conceptual equating of autism with sets of traits that have been shown to be ...

Genetic Evidence Supporting a Role for Brain Region Volume and Functional Network Alterations in Major Depression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Genome‐wide analyses indicate that reduced ventral diencephalon and thalamus volumes, along with decreased functional connectivity within the triple network (DMN/CEN/SN), are uniquely associated with the risk of major depression (MD) onset, compared to other similar severe psychiatric disorders.

The oxytocin receptor gene predicts brain activity during an emotion recognition task in autism

Molecular Autism, 2019
Background Autism is a highly varied and heritable neurodevelopmental condition, and common variants explain approximately 50% of the genetic variance of autism. One of the genes implicated in autism is the oxytocin receptor (OXTR).

Infants later diagnosed with autism have lower canonical babbling ratios in the first year of life

Molecular Autism, 2022
Background Canonical babbling—producing syllables with a mature consonant, full vowel, and smooth transition—is an important developmental milestone that typically occurs in the first year of life.

Early brain development in infants at high risk for autism spectrum disorder

Nature, 2017
Brain enlargement has been observed in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but the timing of this phenomenon, and the relationship between ASD and the appearance of behavioural symptoms, are unknown.

Capturing the Electrical Activity of all Cortical Neurons: Are Solutions Within Reach?

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Despite advancements in implantable electrode technology, challenges persist in scaling up these devices to record most of the neuronal activity across the cortex. This review explores the limitations of both rigid and flexible probes, including tissue damage and foreign body response, while also discussing emerging biohybrid strategies.
