Listen "Genes, Environment, Development 🧬🌿🧠— A 2025 Perspective on Autism"
Episode Synopsis
🧬 New insights into autism: A 2025 JCI Viewpoint highlights how hundreds of genes, polygenic risk, and specific environmental factors converge during fetal brain development to shape autism likelihood. 🧠 Early biomarkers—from infant MRI and ERPs to machine-learning models using EHR data—are accelerating earlier, more tailored interventions. 🌱 Advances in gene therapy, IGF-1 pathways, and proteomics offer emerging therapeutic possibilities. 🤝 Centering autistic voices remains essential as precision approaches evolve.
