Grunya Efimovna Sukhareva from Ukraine, was the first to define Autism and what was later given credit to the men spoken of in this video. She wrote and published her findings in Russian and it took time to be translated into German. Asperger would likely have read her work as with his colleague. The stats here are out of date and in reality, it's the minority of those diagnosed with what is considered severe challenges.This is a dated video, much has been learned in neuroscience since this lecture. Additionally and more importantly, stats hare being corrected. Huge numbers of populations were excluded which are why numbers appear on the surface to be increasing. They were always there. The twin issue could probably be explained today as cells do have more independent decision making capability that previously recognized. Genes can hold in them more than one characteristic which can be turned on and off at the genes will. Many experts do not believe that this is a disease, this seems to be more of an USAmerican issue with funding, supports and categorizing terms. My preferred term for ASD is ASC. Autism Spectrum 'Condition' though in my opinion, that word could easily become Characteristic. The mutations have been an asset to humanity in the past and will be again. People with Autism should not be left out of this research not in a usery way, but as researchers. Our perspective is compelling and very different.

Very interesting information - Dr Dolmetsch's lecture reminds me of the PSYC 275 course I took.

I don't like how he keeps calling it a disease. It's part of the person I am. I am not sick. I am not broken.

TAKE HOME MESSAGE 10:34 "...if you take language literally, you misunderstand almost everything."

@interestedinscience
the syndrome is FGS, not SF; can't find a reference for the latter one.
however... you concern about taking Autism Speaks' material as being credible - it's not. -
I bet Aaron is not here, I'll keep searching
