Most people take for granted which hand they use to reach for a cup of coffee or a puzzle piece. However, a new study out of ...

Kennedy Krieger is looking for adults with ASD to participate in a neuroimaging research study. Participation includes a brief cognitive assessment, a two-hour MRI scan, a memory task, and ...

This is the first study to show that it is possible to use brain biomarkers to identify which infants in a high-risk pool — that is, those having an older sibling with autism — will be diagnosed with ...

A 24-year-old man who died of dementia just after Christmas has left his brain to help researchers understand the rare ...

Currently, there is no way to diagnose children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) until behavioral traits begin to show at around 24 months of age. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ...

For the first time, autism researchers used MRIs of six-month olds to show how brain regions are connected and synchronized, and then predict which babies at high risk of developing autism would be ...

It is a central question in neuroscience to understand how different regions of the brain interact, how strongly they "talk" to each other. Researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in ...

Researchers have made important advances in determining the origins of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), possibly paving the way for developing novel biomarkers and targets for therapeutics. After ...
