Oct 4, 2020 at 2:12 | comment | added | Poidah | @Chris There is still mixed evidence in the literature it seems, making it hard to craft a half decent answer. This 2018 paper argues for a relationship between systematisers and maths - nature.com/articles/s41598-018-30013-8 | |

Aug 25, 2019 at 2:06 | comment | added | Tim Wright | From the registration page: "Who can take part? Anyone who is pursuing or has obtained a degree in mathematical sciences, theoretical physics, statistics, computational sciences or other mathematically related subjects from specific universities is eligible to participate. We are looking for people who have a clinical diagnosis of autism. We are also looking for individuals with a maths background as described above but with no diagnosis of autism or immediate family history of autism. This group of participants is important to make genetic comparisons." | |
Aug 25, 2019 at 2:04 | comment | added | Tim Wright | It might also be useful to mention for anyone who happens to read this that Baron-Cohen's team are looking for participants: individuals pursuing/holding a degree in a mathematics related area with or without a clinically diagnosed autism spectrum condition. | |
Aug 25, 2019 at 2:04 | comment | added | Tim Wright | @Poidah Wow; Thank you very much for this pointer! That study would answer precisely the question I was thinking about, and in a way much much superior than anything I was hoping for! | |

Added details of one of the studies to the question

Aug 24, 2019 at 4:55 | comment | added | Poidah | This genetic study of mathematicians would be exciting when it is published - templetonworldcharity.org/projects/… | |
