  "summary": "Our companion sequencing study uncovered 253 genes robustly associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), yet the biological programs they impact, and the cellular, developmental, and spatial contexts in which they converge, remain unresolved. Here we systematically contextualize genes associated with ASD across neurodevelopment and cortical areas, integrating developmental single-cell and…",
