Positive screen for autism often does not spur further evaluation
More than two-thirds of toddlers flagged for autism do not get assessed for the condition by specialists.

Algorithm flags harmful mutations in single copies of genes
A new tool can predict a genetic problem called 'haploinsufficiency' in which a mutation impairs the function of one copy of a gene.

Este artigo mudou minha vida: adotando um dos primeiros modelos de neurociência naturalística
Um artigo publicado na PNAS em 1992 mostrou que o canto das aves aumenta a expressão de um gene de resposta imediata no prosencéfalo dessas aves. O estudo revelou a Ribeiro a importância de investigar as respostas moleculares em contextos naturalísticos.
