Genetics first
Launched in September 2010, the Simons Variation in Individuals Project takes a 'genetics first' approach to the study of autism by studying a large group of people with the same genetic event: deletion or duplication of the 16p11.2 chromosomal region.
Blocking bullies
Children with autism are bullied three times more than their typically developing siblings, according to research from the Interactive Autism Network.
