The presence of speech patterns in people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), commonly called autism, is linked to problems in social communication and social interaction that define ASD. These ...

In one of the largest studies to date, researchers at Boston Children’s Hospital used electroencephalography (EEG) to measure brain activity in children and determined 33 specific patterns that could ...

Using eye-tracking methods, researchers have shown that toddlers with autism spend significantly more time visually examining dynamic geometric patterns than they do looking at social images -- a ...

It's possible to predict whether a young child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) will respond to an evidence-based behavioral intervention by analyzing brain activity patterns with functional MRI ...

The study looked at infants and toddlers, aged 3 months to 3 years. Can a baby’s brain waves predict the chance of autism? New research that looked at brain wave patterns of babies and toddlers showed ...

New research suggests that the various reports -- of both over- and under-connectivity -- may, in fact, reflect a deeper principle of brain function. The study shows that the brains of individuals ...

A new study published in Molecular Psychiatry reveals that the biological underpinnings of autism and ADHD may transcend traditional diagnostic boundaries. While there is increasing appreciation that ...

Using machine learning, researchers at the UC Davis MIND Institute have identified several patterns of maternal autoantibodies highly associated with the diagnosis and severity of autism. Their study, ...

Using eye-tracking methods, researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine have shown that toddlers with autism spend significantly more time visually examining dynamic ...
