COMMENTS: Autistic Kissing Cousins
Both NBC's Robert Bazell and ABC's John McKenzie told us about the latest autism research in Science into the role of genes.

Bazell told us that genes are easier to isolate in cultures where there is plenty of intermarriage between first cousins, so the study in Science focused on the Middle East, Pakistan and Turkey.
