image: PET imaging of two molecules that trace GABA receptors revealed there was no difference in GABA receptor availability in the brains of adults with ASD compared to controls. This material relates to a paper that appeared in the Oct. 3, 2018, issue of Science Translational Medicine, published by AAAS. The paper, by J.
