Two new resources catalog how genetic variants affect gene expression in the brain.

A large study of minute mutations in people with developmental conditions, including autism, has uncovered 200 potential risk genes.

A new method uses genetic clues to uncover new uses for existing medications.

An understudied chemical modification that influences gene expression is abundant in the brains of people with autism.

As many as one in three rare mutations seen in people with autism may have nothing to do with the condition.

A new technique offers a fast, versatile way to measure gene expression in thousands of cells at once.

A new computer program can predict the 3-D structure of proteins at a fraction of the cost of traditional methods.

An analysis of whole genomes from more than 5,000 people has unearthed 18 new candidate genes for autism.

Finding a difference between people with and without autism is only the first step toward identifying a clinically useful marker of the condition.

A new resource helps biologists easily mine large troves of information about when and where genes are expressed.
