Article in the press: Children with autism have distinctive patterns of brain activity

There was an interesting article in the UK newspaper 'The Guardian' today:

Researchers in the US have found that children with autism have different patterns of brain activity compared with children that do not have autism.  Further research is needed, but the findings could be really useful for developing treatment targets for children on th autistic spectrum.
