Abstract(s)

Last fifteen years revealed an exponential growth in endophenotype and biomarkers research field in autism and epilepsy. The main goal seems to establish the relationship between neurobiological processes underlying pathological mechanisms and clinical expression, to define better treatment strategies but also accurate diagnosis. Comorbidity of autism with epilepsy occurs in 30% of cases. However, little is known on the common neurophysiopathological mechanisms and possible biomarkers. Very scarcely is known concerning auditory event-related potentials (AERPs) as possible biomarkers of autism associated with epilepsy. Our aim is to explore putative neuropsychophysiological trait markers in a case study of autism with generalized epilepsy, and its unaffected family members compared to a control group.
