Thank you @washingtonpost for shining a bright spotlight on the needs of those with profound autism.

[Alison Singer @alisonsinger]

We cannot allow our family members with profound autism to be left behind anymore. Profound Autism MUST be directly addressed in the reauthorization of the Autism Cares Act.

Much neurodiversity rhetoric is unmoored from the reality of profound #autism and I/DD, but perhaps none more so than the rabid opposition to 14c, the subminimum wage: https://t.co/f17TM24dfv

Policy should be based in reality!

I love this time of year, when half the people on the subway are wearing flip flops and the other half are wearing boots.

On 9/26/20, Feda & Mu Amaliti lost their lives in a house fire after Feda ran into a burning house to rescue her adult son with profound autism. Their deaths might have been prevented w/ improved awareness of safety protocols in emergency situations. https://t.co/2KMBRu8fNF

Long-term minimally-invasive recordings from human neural #organoids & #assembloids have been challenging.

Inspired by the art of #kirigami and as part of a close collaboration with @BianxiaoC’s lab in the @BrOrganogenesis, Xiao Yang and Csaba Forro developed flexible electronics that transition from a 2D pattern to a 3D basket-like configuration to accommodate the long-term culture & functional probing of #organoids and #assembloids in suspension.

“It’s critically important to listen to what I call autistic voices,” says Stephen Camarata. “I worry that we are moving away from the commitment to be sure that we’re validating that it’s an authentic autistic voice.”

"Critically, we need to identify which children are best suited for an autism diagnostic assessment by general pediatricians." https://t.co/KdLTmZpis3 A biomarker or two for triage could be useful perhaps?
