Summary
This online video presents a broad overview of some areas of neuroimaging research in autism. It discusses the reward system, effects of oxytocin on the social brain, whether the autistic brain is under-connected or over-connected, and the possibility that differences in head movement between autistic and typically-developing people may have confounded brain imaging research studies.

The Center for Autism Research and Treatment at UCLA is an autism research center of excellence aiming “to understand the origins of the social, communicative, and language deficits demonstrated by individuals with autism and related disorders.” [Website]
