Thank you for posting that! I am not exposed to current research on autism, but I want to know what is happening.

Does that mean that autism can be an evolutionary symptom of trying to balance maximum intelligence (which I assume requires, in layman's terms, a ton of neurons) with robust brain organization and overall brain health?

And do we know if any other species experience autism?
