Supported by a grant, the Auerbach Lab at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology will examine how different genes associated with autism spectrum disorders may similarly impact our ...

A research team has identified the primary cause of sensory hypersensitivity in a mouse model of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). A research team led by Director KIM Eunjoon of the Center for Synaptic ...

Source: Pexels In 2021, we published a piece titled ‘No, being autistic is not the same as being highly sensitive’, an article that has now been read over 100,000 times, indicating this is a topic ...

A cross-species study published in Nature Neuroscience has sorted brain connectivity patterns from 20 genetic mouse models of ...

Scientists used zebrafish that carry the same genetic mutations as humans with Fragile X syndrome and autism, and discovered the neural networks and pathways that produce the hypersensitivities to ...

Many people with autism spectrum disorders are highly sensitive to light, noise, and other sensory input. A new study in mice reveals a neural circuit that appears to underlie this hypersensitivity, ...

The reason why individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) react with abnormal hypersensitivity to small everyday stimuli has been identified as excessive synaptic transmission occurring in the ...

Supported by a $2 million R01 grant from the National Institutes of Health, the Auerbach Lab at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology will examine how different genes associated ...

Given the challenges kids and teens with autism often face regarding sensory sensitivities and changes in routine, the exposure activities for a plan of action targeting these fears may need to be ...

The Madison County Sheriff's Office is taking additional steps in order to better serve all members of the community by undergoing training in autism sensitivity. According to law enforcement, the ...

Sensory hypersensitivity in mice with the Grin2b gene mutation found in patients is related to hyperactivity of the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and hyperconnectivity between the ACC and other ...
