		<description><![CDATA[In Pediatrics Professor Sally Ozonoff and her colleagues of the Baby Siblings Research Consortium have reported data indicating a substantially higher risk for Autism among siblings than had been previously found. Based on data from studies in the 1980s, estimates of the risk of Autism in a child given that an older sibling had Autism [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In a letter to Nature, Lauren Weiss, Dan Arking, the Gene Discovery Project of Johns Hopkins, and the Autism Consortium report that they have analyzed multiple data sets and identified potential loci on human genes for susceptibility for Autism. They found possible linkages on four chromosomes (5p15, 6q27, and 20p13) and, coupled with other data, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Neurons in the central nervous system communicate with each other chemically through neural synapses. Neurons receive excitatory input from glutamatergic neurons and inhibitory input from GABA-releasing (GABAergic) interneurons. Some hypotheses about Autism are predicated on the possibility that there is an imbalance between the excitatory and inhibitory neural activity, perhaps especially in the so-called mirror [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I guess one can read geneses as a typographical variant on genes or, as I intended, as the plural of genesis. Using it the latter way: Emerging evidence makes it appear even more unlikely than ever that researchers will be able to identify a relative few genes&#8212;let alone the or one gene&#8212;for schizophrenia. Writing under [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Professor Lauren Weiss and colleagues form the Autism Consortium published a paper in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine today that provides further and stronger evidence about genetic problems underlying Autism. They have identified changes in genetic structure that appear in a small number of children but not in those children&#8217;s parents. Published at [...]]]></description>
