Analyzing large numbers of autism mice, researchers have found that the mice cluster into subtypes based on brain structure and functional connectivity.
In one project, Canadian researchers performed nearly 4,000 structural brain scans in 92 mouse models of autism. They looked for brain regions that are smaller or larger in the mutants than in controls. Read more.
