Doctors are calling on society for a broad discussion in the light of the fact that in the near future it will be possible to conduct a prenatal autism test. Sufferers of this disease will be identified before birth and aborted. At the same time, according to many researchers, autism is not only a disease, but also a predisposition to genius. Among the outstanding mathematicians and physicists, there were especially many people who suffered from this ailment.
Autism, according to some reports, suffered from the great British physicist Paul Dirac, writes the Inopressa website with reference to The Guardian. Einstein noted in his private correspondence that it was difficult for him to communicate with Dirac - the line between genius and madness seemed to him very shaky.
Note that Paul Dirac was one of the first scientists in the field of quantum mechanics and quantum electrodynamics. On account of his many discoveries: in particular, he predicted the discovery of the positron two years before its experimental discovery. He took the honorary chair of professor of mathematics at Cambridge at the age of only 29, at the same age only Isaac Newton took it.
In connection with new details from the life of a scientist, The Guardian asks the question - will society lose great people if autistic people are no longer born?

Geneticists Have Created GMO Tomatoes That Can Slow Human Aging
British geneticists have developed a new variety of transgenic tomatoes, whose pulp contains large amounts of resveratrol, a powerful antioxidant from red wine that can slow aging and the development of Alzheimer's disease, according to an article published in the journal Nature Communications. “Medicinal plants are often difficult to grow and usually take a very long time to produce the substances we need
Why Were Huge Geoglyphs Created All Over The World In Ancient Times?
On different continents, scientists find gigantic ancient images of animals, people, and geometric shapes. For what purpose were they created? There are many answers to this question, sometimes the most fantastic. However, no one knows about the true meaning of the mysterious drawings. It seems that the most prolific ancient artists were the Indians - the Atacama Desert on the Pacific Ocean in northern Chile is replete with such pictures. The most interesting of them are the geoglyphs on the Unitas hill between the city

Modifying certain genes could rob the world of a new Shakespeare or Stephen Hawking, says Kozubek. The researcher fears that the change in variants of genes (alleles), the cat
A Control System For Groups Of Combat Robots Is Being Created In Russia
Russia is creating a system for centralized control of groups of combat robots, a source at the Central Research Institute of Robotics and Technical Cybernetics (RTK) in St. Petersburg said on Monday. Radiation reconnaissance robotic means (RTS-RR) This refers to various robotic platforms for combat operations, capable, inter alia, of carrying various types of weapons, as well as for inspection activities, in particular, monitoring the level of radiation pollution
