Objective: The current article discusses recent literature on perceptual processing in autism
and aims to provide a critical review of existing theories of autistic perception and …

Autism impacts a wide range of behaviors and neural functions. As such, theories of autism
spectrum disorder (ASD) are numerous and span different levels of description, from …

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a common neurodevelopmental condition with
approximately 1–2-per cent prevalence in the population. The condition has lifelong effects …

Gene expression covaries with brain activity as measured by resting state functional
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, it is unclear how genomic differences driven …

Background The underlying neurobiology of the complex autism phenotype remains
obscure, although accumulating evidence implicates the serotonin system and especially …

Genes and environmental stimuli cooperate in the regulation of brain development and
formation of the adult neuronal architecture. Genetic alterations or exposure to perturbing …

Close phenotypic characterization of individuals with genetic conditions linked to autism
provides a promising approach to navigating the heterogeneity of autism spectrum …

Background During observation of the Necker cube perception becomes unstable and
alternates repeatedly between a from-above-perspective (“fap”) and a from-below …

Normal visual development is supported by intrinsic neurobiological mechanisms and by
appropriate stimulation from the environment, both of which facilitate the maturation of visual …

Sensory differences between autism and neuro-typical populations are well-documented
and have often been explained by either weak-central-coherence or excitation/inhibition …
