Young children usually understand more words than they can say: a “comprehension–production gap”.

In a new study, we found that children with Williams syndrome (WS) have a unique profile: their gap is significantly reduced compared to other groups. 🧵 #LanguageDevelopment #WilliamsSyndrome #devpsyc

Williams Syndrome: The people who are too friendly People with Williams Syndrome treat strangers as their new best friends. Now the condition is revealing clues to our evolutionary past – and what makes us human.

Imagine walking down the street and feeling an overwhelming love and warmth for every single person that you met. That is a familiar experience for people with #WilliamsSyndrome (WS), a rare genetic condition that affects approximately 1 in 7,500 individuals.

Niko has a dual diagnosis of Williams Syndrome and autism. My friend Rosa's kiddo has the same dual diagnosis. They're pretty special kids in many ways! #WilliamsSyndrome #autism

“I think he has hypercalcemia. Maybe try a Pamidronate infusion. I made up a file stating why I think this is the route to go and what risks we’re looking at.” I am the doctor's best friend.

It’s Williams Syndrome Awareness Month! #WilliamsSyndrome #autism

My son was Googling me. 😂 #williamssyndrome #autism

Happy Birthday, Niko! I'm so proud of the rockstar you are. I hope you enjoyed your very last day of school ever!

The only thing better would be if that bowtie could spin! ❤️

Name a more iconic duo. I recall hating the stencils I drew, details were hard to work with.

That was my negative post, so time for a sweet one. Niko is writing Santa asking for birthday presents. That subject line! He's truly my kid. ❤️

Picture of a child's bruised forehead.

A concussion checklist sent home from school.

Today was a day. Niko had a meltdown at school and beat his head against the wall hard enough to leave marks. His teacher very nearly had to restrain him. Because of the bruising, the school is required to put him on concussion protocol, and I'm keeping an eye on him. #WilliamsSyndrome #autism

Keen to connect with others from the #rollerderby community.

This is me doing what I do.

Outside of roller derby, I love my most important job; being a best friend and teacher to my amazing daughter who has #WilliamsSyndrome ❤️💚💙

So happy to see @williamssyndrome.bsky.social here, any other #williamssyndrome families I can connect with? #neurodiversity

The school asked me to pick up Niko, who was cleared to go to school, but just can't kick this cough. Poor kid! I'm sad to cancel lunch with a friend, but I'm sure Niko will make it up with some snuggling.

Also, this hair, man! ❤

Niko wrote a letter to Santa.❤️

Niko brought his keyboard to the party. This is what happiness looks like. #WilliamsSyndrome #autism

This is my 1st first author paper & I'm so grateful to the SUPER team @craeioe.bsky.social
for allowing me to do this work & being 100% behind importance of adapting research methods to include #autistic people with LD & people with #WilliamsSyndrome.

A set of muted, earthy, imperfect colors conform to and defy shapes and sections; it fits a mold and rebels against it, like many of us do.

Thank you so much, Joanna. it has been great to follow his progress. ❤️

Lowercase graphic novels - good question. The only ones I know of are The Yak Pack phonics series. The teaching order isn't quite the same and they use some terminology we don't but that's easy to work round.

Why was no #pupilcontagion found in #WilliamsSyndrome? Arousal synchronisation may not be linked to social approach motivation per se, since this is enhanced in Williams syndrome. Instead, reduced synchronisation may explain social communication challenges in the condition

No transfer of arousal from other’s eyes in Williams syndrome - Scientific Reports Scientific Reports - No transfer of arousal from other’s eyes in Williams syndrome

When looking at each others eyes, our pupils adapt to the size of others. #Pupil contagion may underlie social cognition trust. We show that pupil contagion is absent in #WilliamsSyndrome, a rare hyper-social condition

Musical Memory in Autism and Williams Syndrome — BrainPost | Easy-to-read summaries of the latest neuroscience publications Post by Anastasia Sares What's the science? Music has been called a “human universal,” as its presence has been found in almost every known culture. While musical instruments have an important place, the human voice is one of the most primal music-makers. In fact, people tend to remember me

This @brainpostco summary highlights recent work from BRAMS members and collaborators @m_weiss_ @mshar86 @miriamlense Krista Hyde & Sandra Trehub about the voice advantage for musical memory in #ASD and #WilliamsSyndrome.
