Check out this @nature.com paper on how the brain’s functional hierarchy evolves from birth to 100. Infants' gradient architecture is anchored by sensory systems, differentiates along association and control axes during childhood/adolescence & dedifferentiates in aging www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Why are the American president's claims about autism the first item on British news bulletins? He's not our president, the advice doesn't apply here and he's not presented any evidence to support his assertions. So why spread these claims? What make this the biggest story in the UK?

Pleased to share new work from our group, led by the talented Yuanjun (Genie) Gu, who is not on Bluesy. www.nature.com/articles/s41... We ask if there is *any* shared genetics between autism and some selected structural MRI phenotypes.
