The mice thing is interesting because they've been doing this for a while. There's an infection they give to pregnant mice that makes the babies display something like ASD. They've treated those symptoms before with a probiotic bacteria. The 'autistic' mice stopped doing things like persistently burying marbles but they still ignored other mice. Unsure if this latest thing is similar.
