This article highlights the need for ethical and fair genetic research in autism, especially for vulnerable and marginalised groups. It calls for autism genetics studies to prioritise the well-being, autonomy, and rights of autistic people, with clear guidelines for informed consent and responsible research. The recommendations aim to ensure that research benefits autistic individuals and avoids harm, while also being inclusive of those with communication or cognitive differences.
