New research is helping scientists better understand autism at the molecular level.

A study from Yale University, published in The American Journal of Psychiatry, identified a measurable difference in how certain brain receptors function in autistic adults. Researchers found lower availability of a specific glutamate receptor, offering new insight into how the autistic brain processes excitatory and inhibitory signals.

Importantly, this research isn’t about “fixing” autism — it’s about understanding it more clearly. These findings may help inform future tools for diagnosis and support, especially for individuals whose symptoms impact daily life.

"Now, we've found something that is meaningful, measurable, and different in the autistic brain."

Love knows no bounds. 💙
When Mariah and Dominic found each other through an app designed for people with autism, they showed what’s possible when support, connection, and understanding come together.
At Boundless, we believe in creating spaces where every person is seen, heard, and empowered — and stories like this inspire us to keep building.
