Links between sensory and motor brain networks may be unusually weak in individuals with autism.

A new method enables researchers to plot activity in the zebrafish brain’s system for spatial orientation and balance.

Adding motor and sensory data boosts the accuracy of Research Domain Criteria — a broad research framework adopted by the U.S. National Institute of Mental Health — for predicting autism.
