Guest guest Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 I have had several email conversations with Dr. Minshew recently about a study that has just been published, indicating that other researchers might be overly narrowing the focus on which part of the brain is affected by autism. I imagine that her discussion would be very informative. I have a copy of this recent study, " Underdevelopment of the postural control system in autism " . If you want a copy, email me privately and I'll send you a copy. It is an Adobe Acrobat document, so you'll need to have the reader. Also, she has indicated that their research is often held up for lack of subjects. If you're interested, I have a recruitment document that I can send as well. Email me privately if interested.

Post Campus of Long Island University Brookville, New York THE ROOM IS STILL TO BE ANNOUNCED Description: New Developments in Autism and What they mean to you : New research about how people with autism think and how that way of thinking leads to their social and emotional deficits, focus on details, and inflexibility. Bio: J Minshew, M.D., Associate Professor of Psychiatry and Neurology at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, is a research neurologist who has developed a model of the cognitive and neural deficits in autism. Her analytic scientific work reflects insights regarding the clinical syndrome won from years of working with hundreds of patients with autism and the results of extensive data collected. Her research, conducted in collaboration with her extensive research team, has completed large-scale neuropsychologic studies, eye movement and posturography studies, and structural and functional imaging studies of high functioning autistic individuals. This research has resulted in identification of deficits in complex cognitive abilities across domains with reliance on intact simpler abilities and evidence of under-development of connections of neocortical systems and reliance on the activity of more basic localized brain regions.
