Great. I found this research https://www.simonsfoundation.org/2017/09/26/microbiome-proje... But do they study microbiome in relation to autism? I could not find any such research.

I wish he invested in studying the microbiome. It is a relatively new field and requires computational powers. From the article, if I understand correctly, they study autism only in the context of the DNA. But it is now known that the disor

Isn't there also a probabilistic angle? On the second video, on the outer circle I see that same sides repeat at most 3 times. Can this be a true random number generator? Here are the numbers: 1-2-6-4-6-6-6-4-5-3-6-1-2-6-1-2-6-4-6-3-1-

So the issue is not about having a higher density of rods and cones in the eye but about the focal point (which I think should be related to the lens). The closer to the surface the eye focus the sharper the image and more details are seen.

It's unfortunate that he is focusing on the wrong part of the body. His problems arise from his gut. He should have spent all that money looking at the microbiota.
