Are autistic suspects likely to be disadvantaged in forensic interviews?‎

A new study led by Flinders University finds both autistic and nonautistic suspects may be judged more harshly if any idiosyncratic behaviors in interviews stray beyond what observers consider normal. The research also undermines the widely held perspective—referred to as the "double empathy hypothesis"—that autistic people can better "read" differing intentions and motivations in other autistic people than nonautistic people can.

3D genome 'entanglement' may explain how cephalopods evolved complex brains‎

Octopuses, squid and cuttlefish, collectively known as coleoid cephalopods, have evolved exceptionally large and elaborately structured nervous systems capable of complex behaviors such as problem-solving and rapid camouflage. A new study by scientists at the University of Vienna suggests that the origins of this complexity may lie not just in the genes themselves, but in how the genome is organized in 3D.
