Description: fMRI-derived image of difference between brains of autistic and control groups. Legend reads "Activation during visuomotor coordination: Autism Group [yellow], Control Group [Blue], Overlap (both groups) [green]". for Laurent Mottron*, "Even researchers who study autism can display a negative bias against people with the condition. For instance, researchers performing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans systematically report changes in the activation of some brain regions as deficits in the autistic group — rather than evidence simply of their alternative, yet sometimes successful, brain organization". * Laurent Mottron, Changing perceptions: The power of autism ; Nature 479, 33–35 (03 November 2011) ; doi:10.1038/479033a En ligne : 2011-11-02
