People with autism have their own ways of interacting with the world, because autism is a developmental disability that affects everyone who has it a little differently, according to Dr. Daniel Geschwind, director of UCLA CART and the Gordon and Virginia Macdonald distinguished professor of human genetics, neurology and psychiatry at UCLA.
