How autism scientists are tackling brain imaging’s replication problem
Reports of flaws in imaging research are signs of a maturing field, experts say, not a devastating blow to its results.

When Tonya White isn’t studying brain development, she might be listening to audiobooks or cycling across Europe — but she probably isn’t tweeting.
The link between autism and prenatal exposure to an immune response may involve altered levels of immune cells, according to a new study.
Methods that selectively increase levels of the Rett protein make for safer and more effective treatment strategies, some researchers say.
Atypical patterns of neuronal activity and gene expression in the striatum may characterize autism in girls, according to a new study.
The field of neuroimaging will need to combine two strategies before it can find patterns of brain activity or structure unique to autism, the researchers say.
Autistic boys and men are less attuned to social stimuli than autistic girls and women are, according to new unpublished work.
Activity patterns of neuronal networks link different genetic subtypes of autism that have similar traits, according to new unpublished research.
Certain antibodies may shape neurodevelopment by attaching to and invading new neurons in the brain.
A test of binocular rivalry may distinguish between autism subtypes and help researchers screen the efficacy of certain drugs.
