New Scientist Article on Autism

Although I am on vacation this week, I am still maintaining my blogging schedule. However, today I am going to write a very short entry. I just want to alert my readers to an interesting article that appeared yesterday in the online science magazine – the New Scientist. The article discusses two related topics – the recent decision by the US government to award damages to a child with autism, and the possible connection between some forms of autism and mitochondrial disorders.

The article does a good job of covering the important issues. Of note, I was interviewed for this article, based upon my previous blog entry on the topic.
