Show Notes

This week’s ASF weekly science podcast features Dr. David Amaral, who directs the Autism BrainNet. The Autism BrainNet is a program that organizes the collection of post-mortem brain tissue and then distributes it to autism researchers worldwide to better understand the brains of people with autism. He discusses major scientific discoveries about the mechanisms of autism in the brain that were only possible by using this resource, and the brave generosity of families that make the program happen. Anyone can register to learn more about new scientific research and the program itself, it’s important that everyone at least know the program exists for future planning.
