Some autistic people are diagnosed early 👶, others much later 🧑‍🎓. This new preprint finds that age of diagnosis links to different genetic and behavioral profiles. Such axes help explain why autism can look so different from one person to another. tinyurl.com/cexv5uh5

An axis of genetic heterogeneity in autism is indexed by age at diagnosis and is associated with varying developmental and mental health profiles

There is growing recognition that earliest signs of autism need not clearly manifest in the first three years of life. To what extent is this variation in developmental trajectories associated with ag...

(in Dutch): Interessant interview met #GENEAmsterdam wetenschappers @mmdewit.bsky.social en @tincatwin.bsky.social: 'Erfelijk of ontwikkeld: hoe ontstaat autisme?' over hartnekkige misverstanden, de interpretatie van erfelijkheid en de invloed van externe factoren. www.quest.nl/mens/psychol...

No posts yet but this is a grassroots network of Amsterdam geneticists, crosses disciplines, institutions & career stage. All run out of passion on a shoestring budget. Great way to strike up collaborations!

Last Thursday, Thomas and @mmdewit.bsky.social shared insights on sex differences in autism and diagnostic ratios at an #AutismeCafe — bringing science beyond the department. Great discussions with autistic people and parents followed!
