The Washington Post interviews John Foxe, Ph.D., about his research with children who have difficulty processing sensory information, like sound and touch. Dr. Foxe's research, conducted with his collaborator Sophie Molholm, Ph.D., has shown that the brain wave patterns of children identified with having sensory processing disorder differ from those of typically developing children. Dr. Foxe is professor in the Dominick P. Purpura Department of Neuroscience and of pediatrics, and director of research at the Children’s Evaluation and Rehabilitation Center at Einstein.

MSNBC interviews John Foxe, Ph.D., about the new CDC report that finds the rate of autism in 2010 was 1 in 68 U.S. children, up 30% from 2008. Dr. Foxe explains that the wide range in prevalence across the 11 sites included in the report – from 5.7 to 29.1 per 1,000 children – suggests that the rate will continue to increase especially among sites with low prevalence. He also notes that researchers have now identified the genetic mutation that causes autism in about 25 to 30 percent of cases. Dr. Foxe is professor in the Dominick P. Purpura Department of Neuroscience and of pediatrics and director of research at the Children’s Evaluation and Rehabilitation Center at Einstein.

Scientific American interviews John Foxe, Ph.D., about Mobile Brain/Body Imaging, or MoBI. The mobile and wireless technology allows electroencephalographic (EEG) brain-wave detection while patients are moving, allowing scientists to study the brain in more natural settings. Dr. Foxe is professor in the Dominick P. Purpura Department of Neuroscience and of pediatrics and director of research at the Children's Evaluation and Rehabilitation Center at Einstein.
