Autism with epilepsy: a clinical and genetic study. Research Protocol
No full textAbstract: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a common neurodevelopmental condition affecting
~1% of people worldwide. Core ASD features present with impaired social communication abilities,
repetitive and stereotyped behaviors, and atypical sensory responses and are often associated with a
series of comorbidities. Among these, epilepsy is frequently observed. The co-occurrence of ASD
and epilepsy is currently thought to result from common abnormal neurodevelopmental pathways,
including an imbalanced excitation/inhibition ratio. However, the pathological mechanisms involved
in ASD-epilepsy co-morbidity are still largely unknown. Here, we propose a research protocol aiming
to investigate electrophysiological and genetic features in subjects with ASD and epilepsy. This study
will include a detailed electroencephalographic (EEG) and blood transcriptomic characterization of
subjects with ASD with and without epilepsy. The combined approach of EEG and transcriptomic
studies in the same subjects will contribute to a novel stratification paradigm of the heterogeneous
ASD population based on quantitative gene expression and neurophysiological biomarkers. In
addition, our protocol has the potential to indicate new therapeutic options, thus amending the
current condition of absence of data and guidelines for the treatment of ASD with epileps

Osservazioni sull’indipendenza dell’esperienza immediata: da Frege alla «fenomenologia sperimentale» di Paolo Bozzi
No full textPaolo Bozzi developed his «experimental phenomenology» from the Gestalt psychology tradition, particularly from Gaetano Kanizsa’s method. The distinction between «phenomenal description» and «causal explanation» of the «perception» springs up from the analysis of Bozzi’s «S-D psychophysical scheme». What Frege, who was well-known by Bozzi, deals with in paragraph 71 of The Thought theoretically mirrors what is outlined in the Scheme and could also be intended as its source. The juxtaposition between a «science of observable things» or «experimental phenomenology» – conceived as a science which is autonomous from what happens in the brain – and logics, which is set up autonomously from the thinking processes, is a programmatic element that is openly indicated by the author. Frege’s anti-psychologism and realism are both widely shared by Bozzi. The realism and the «naïve physics» Bozzi was a pioneer of lie at the basis of the so-called «New Realism». The following essay aims to localize and highlight some theoretical implications – up to their phenomenological origins – which can be detected particularly in paragraph 71 of The Thought. The present work tries to sketch out the boundaries and the autonomy of the «first person» perceptive experience and to define the scientific explanation that we can give of it. The distinction between science and experience, and the autonomy of experience from science and of the immediate experience of the content of consciousness from neuroscience, entail the impossibility of a naturalization of the phenomenological experience. In the examples taken from Frege can be found a theoretical bridge which connects the Gestalt perceptological tradition, Wittgenstein’s investigations of the philosophy of psychology, and the so called «New Realism».</p
