My partner, Emily Williams, has a blog devoted primarily to science. However, she has had a longstanding interest in autism, specially the genetics of the same. In this blog she starts studying commonalities among different genetic-based causes of autism (syndromic autism). She finds that defining a common ground among vastly different conditions is hard to figure out.
*Gulp* I realize I share a lot of the facial features with these syndromes but there are some that I don’t have. However, I might be worrying too much since there’s no way I can have all of them at the same time, and a lot of them have heart problems.

Now they do facial feature analysis using computers. The amount of overlap with the general population has proven enormous. We may all be self-conscious.
Thank you for the comment.
