Understanding Autism Spectrum Disorder
Abstract
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder that affects individuals
differently. It is characterized by challenges in social interaction, communication, and repetitive
behaviors [1]. Autism is considered to be a genetically and biologically based disorder, with research
identifying several genes that contribute to increased ASD risk. These genes can now be detected in
up to 25% of cases, highlighting the genetic component of the disorder.
