Can anyone tell me where I can get research on the neurobiology of Asperger's Syndrome? I am also interested in the forthcoming research on the connection between the damage to the amygdyla and Asperger's Syndrome. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

This site might help a little: http://www.autism.net/infoparent.html Scroll down to to find the article by Nancy Minshew, entitled "Brain Mechanisms in...etc." At the end of the article you will find an address where you can address questions to the author. I would suggest writing to her.

You can also check the research projects listed at this site: http://www.udel.edu/bkirby/asperger/research.html

Good Luck, Paulina
