The data, which is being presented at this year's AMP meeting, offers some insights into the often hidden causes of recurrent pregnancy loss.

Pregnancy loss may occur in as many as 25% of all pregnancies. Most of these losses occur in the first trimester, and about half are caused by genetic or chromosomal issues.

Genetics research and cognitive theory together are revealing autism’s biological depth and cognitive richness, shaping a future of personalized understanding.
