Nothing too surprising but glad to see them nailing down aspects of one of the best theories to date.

Thaks for sharing. :)

This raises the possibility “that we may be able to interrupt that process with targeted intervention,” he said.

I hope they know the patient's point on the spectrum before they actually do this.

I don't like the idea of trying to screw around with a developing brain of a baby before it's born.....I mean come on that is just scary the idea that they can just start molding peoples brains to what they want to see before the person in question is even born. I guess some people are ok with eugenics and brain control though.

Kinda reminds me of this weird movie I saw.

Nobody's brains should be tampered with. That's so Nazi Germany.
