Some of the most interesting things raised in the talk are a correlation between common genetic variants linked to autism and high academic achievement, and that the parents of autistic people often have genetic variants linked to autism, though they are probably sub-clinical in displaying autistic phenotypical traits. Additionally, that the phenotypic spectrum of autistic traits reflects an underlying genetic spectrum of variation.
