According to new research, the exposure of pregnant women to insecticides during the first trimester may negatively affect their offspring’s neurodevelopment, particularly in boys. The current study also discovered that the mixture effect (e.g., when two or more compounds in a mixture interact that affect each other’s toxicity) was mainly influenced by trans-DCCA and TCPy. […]
Maternal Immune Response, the Autistic Brain and Memory Retention from Early Childhood
Pioneering Research Reveals that Kids with ASD Retain More Memories from Early Childhood Than Neurotypical Children Neuroscientists at Trinity College Dublin have discovered a fascinating new link between the retention of early life memories and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This innovative study reveals that children on the spectrum retain memories from early childhood, while neurotypical […]
New Research Examines Symptoms of Autism Throughout Midlife and Beyond
Findings Show that Those without ID Had an Accelerated Set of Challenges in Later Years New research from the University of Wisconsin used an accelerated longitudinal design to estimate age-related trajectories over a 60-year period for a large community-based sample of individuals on the spectrum. Unlike most studies that track autism trajectories over childhood, this […]

A new MIND Institute research article discusses the impact of asthma and air pollution on fetal neurodevelopment. Asthma and air pollution are two significant sources of immune stimulation that can significantly impact pregnant mothers. The study hypothesized that combining these two environmental stimuli would result in an exacerbated neuroimmune response in offspring. While the study […]
New Survey Shows Therapeutic Diets More Effective Than Nutraceuticals and Medications for ASD
A “Healthy Diet” Demonstrated the Most Benefits, Followed by Keto, GFCF and Feingold A new research article from Julie Matthews and James Adams has examined the effectiveness of 13 therapeutic diets for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Their study used data from a survey with 818 participants that analyzed each diet’s benefits, adverse effects […]
Prenatal SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein Exposure Impacts the Neurodevelopment of Male Neonatal Rats
New Findings Show Male Rats Are More Susceptible Than Female Rats to Manifesting Behavioral, Biochemical and Histological Alterations After Spike Protein Exposure A recent rodent study from a team of Turkish researchers has investigated the potential impact of the synthetic version of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein on the development of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in […]
