Picture a developing baby’s brain as a vast construction site. Blueprints genes set the basic layout, but fleets of tiny subcontractors arrive from an unexpected address: the gut. Trillions of bacteria, exchanging chemical messages with the immune system, whisper timing cues that may shape how social circuits are wired long before a first cry. Autism,…
Imagine discovering that your morning coffee cup, the houseplant on your windowsill, and even the atoms in your smartphone possess some form of consciousness.
