Abstract
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a highly prevalent developmental disorder. There is notable disparity in occurrence rates between males and females, with males being 4.5 times as likely as their female counterparts to be diagnosed with the disease. A major objective for improving functional outcomes in ASD is to isolate biomarkers for earlier detection; an area as yet unexplored is whether biomarkers of future ASD symptomology may be observable in the fetal brain. Here, we focus on the amygdala, which shows sex-differential patterns of development and has been implicated in the neurobiology of ASD.
