Research published in the journal Science illuminates a "missing piece" in the biological understanding of profound autism and offers new targets for drug development.
This image shows a section of an organoid. Organoids are lab-grown tissues that model the human brain. A new study used brain organoids to probe key protein interactions that may be linked to profound autism.
