One promising therapy, being explored by Jaime Pineda, professor of cognitive science at the University of California, San Diego, involves electrical activity in the sensorimotor cortex, called the mu rhythm, which can serve as an index of mirror neuron activity. Although the mu rhythm is normally suppressed when someone observes or makes a movement as neurons fire randomly relative to one another, the oscillation of this wave is strongest when you are idle and neurons are in a synchronous firing pattern. In autistic children that may not happen. Pineda has been using video games to train autistic children to change their mu rhythms. To move a car around a track or fire lasers at asteroids, the youngsters must enhance that signal-and subsequently engage the mirror neuron system.
It seems to be working. "We think the mirror neurons are firing when they weren't firing before," Pineda says. And parents and teachers have noted improvements in the kids' attention spans and interactions with others.
