Uncharted territory
Drug companies have been curiously reluctant to dive into research on therapies for autism. The chief of Pfizer's new autism research unit explains why.

True blood
Early data suggest that it is possible to identify autism by looking at gene expression in the blood. But it’s going to take more work to prove it.

Database groups common concepts in autism tests
A searchable new database will greatly ease the task of comparing results from more than 25 diagnostic tests for autism, by creating clusters of the various symptoms measured.

Finally, a new route for the magnetic-sense field
Researchers have dueled for years over how the magnetic sense works. New data from monarch butterflies could finally help settle the debate.

Sensory over-responsivity tied to autism, anxiety but not other conditions
Negative reactions to sensations track with certain neurodevelopmental traits in more than 15,000 children—pointing to shared neurobiological roots.

Neuromechanical models deepen our understanding of animal motor control
Thanks to recent progress in physics-based simulators and robotics, it has never been easier for neuroscientists to use neuromechanical modeling to test hypotheses about animal movement.
