Thanks, Jenny. I’m looking for as many research projects, and I found this site, which rites a lot about the mirror neuron theory for autism:

I didn’t see any mentioning of mirror neurons in your site, and was wondering what you or other think about it.

Thanks,

Thank you. I'm an adult man in my 50's, diagnosed with AS. I'm happily married and have a great job that I love. I seek two things. A cure, which is unlikely to be available in my lifetime, and in the meantime, all the help, support and advice I can get on how to live a more meaningful life in which I can contribute to others and society in the best ways I can. I am extremely fortunate to have the help and support I need in abundance. I know others are not nearly so fortunate as I am. Autism is not going away anytime soon. Much, much more research into how those of us with AS and those without AS can support and help each other is very definitely needed. I wish you all the best in your research.
