Potential Autism Cure??
I'm way past due to write about all kinds of cool science that's been happening recently - and I will, I swear - but this is just too cool to wait on. Mice engineered to have fragile-X syndrome, which produces autism-like symptoms, had their conditions largely reversed by blockage of the PAK enzyme. This is potentially HUGE.
Unfortunately, I can't find the paper...anyone have it?
