Autism traits are recorded predominantly by clinicians with their own subjective biases. Can technology do it better?

A novel approach to microscopy reveals the sequences and spatial arrangement of DNA within cells.

L’apprentissage automatique (machine learning) présente une possibilité pour aider les cliniciens à repérer l'autisme plus tôt, mais des obstacles techniques et éthiques demeurent.

Two new resources may aid the study of synapses, the junctions between neurons.

A cache of about 100 brain organoids grown from human cells is expected to launch into orbit this month.

We asked five autism researchers to weigh in on whether there is a unique brain signature for autism and, if so, how to identify it.

A new system enables researchers to automatically track the social behavior of up to four mice for days at a time.

New versions of the DNA editor CRISPR enable scientists to turn off specific genes in rats, detect mutations in human tissue and delete segments of the genome.

A new method for growing brain organoids allows them to survive for up to a year — more than four times as long as is possible with other methods.

Researchers say they are unimpressed with a study that underpins a tech company’s new digital therapy for autism.
