Very different conclusions on autism

The "expert panel" in your article (June 29) apparently states that there is currently little by way of treatment or educational approach that could be recommended to treat autism other than some pharmacological (drug) interventions. This comes as a surprise to me, a research scientist well informed on autism research both at a medical and educational level. I have reached some very different conclusions. I am also aware of the many reports of medical and clinical impairments associated with the condition that can be identified following thorough investigation and treated medically, often with significant improvement.
