Muniz, her ex and her children are among the 2,025 families who volunteered to be genetically tested for a vast registry called the Autism Genetic Resource Exchange (AGRE), assembled to help researchers untangle the complex genetics of autism. Now that effort is beginning to pay off. The largest genetic study of autism ever attempted - involving more than 3,000 participants from AGRE, 1,453 cases from other sources and over 7,000 additional control subjects - identified genetic variations in a region of chromosome 5 that appears to play a pivotal role in about 15% of cases of autism.

...AAAS is unique in that it is both a prestigious honorary society as well as an independent research institute that “undertakes studies of complex and emerging problems,” according to a statement issued by the Academy...
Though Cohen has a Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics from Cambridge, and another one in Experimental Physics from Stanford, he is more inclined to boast about his goofy videos on complex scientific topics than about his pedigree. One such video shows particles under the influence of an electrical waveform synchronized to the beat of “Move It, Move It.” Bopping his head to the beat, Cohen successfully pulls off the seemingly unthinkable: a techno/physics fusion...
While some may consider his area of expertise arcane, Cohen’s admirers praise his exceptional ability to explain complex material to the average person. His older sister, Zoe S. Cohen ’98 applauds his ability to translate his esoteric specialty into “something that makes it interesting and fun for other people...
...company's oldest mill, located across town from the office, nearly a dozen different products are being made simultaneously. The process is complex, time-consuming and challenging.

"You cannot make this business work by just spinning commodity yarn, making commodity-type fabrics and competing only on price," says Hensley. "We take a market and hone it and make the highest-quality [yarn] at the lowest price...
