Two new research projects concerning Autism Spectrum Disorder and Fragile X Syndrome are briefly reviewed. In the first, a random controlled study of children with Autism Spectrum showed that the Early Start Denver Model showed statistically improvement over a control grouop in regard to intellectual development and adaptive behavior. In the second study ,preliminary research showed that a new medication improved behavior associated with Fragile X Syndrome compared to the contorl group. There is also some belief that such mediciation would be effective with children with Autism Spectrum. In conclusion there is a a link to a 4 minute video where a 12 year old boy with Asperger’s Syndrome interviews his mother.
