No Mind Left Behind - Social Brain 3 Conference

mummypig

Hi all

I have just returned from 2 days in Glasgow at the No Mind Left Behind - Social Brain 3 conference.  I was there for work but also had my parent hat on.  There were lots of international speakers and whilst the content was theory/research heavy, I took away some good points.  Did anyone else go?

  • - there is some research that suggests that there is heightened testosterone in the womb which may account for the fact that more boys have ASD than girls and adds to the theory that you are born with ASD rather than it being of an environmental cause

     

    I would be really grateful if you could give me details of this please: where I can find it on the web, names of the researchers, even a scan of any literature.

    You would be helping a family in great need.

    Thank you
