Rex Autistikōn Labs
Independent research into the biomechanics of sensory and interoceptive signaling
We investigate how chronic mechanical restriction in sensor-rich myofascial and visceral interfaces may alter afferent information reaching the central nervous system in neurodevelopmental conditions.
Collaborator Data Intake Portal
Approved research partners can securely submit 8-zone myofascial measurements for Phase 1 Kelvin-Voigt and free-energy analysis.

Rex Autistikōn Labs, operating under the Rex Autistikon Research Foundation, Inc., is an independent 501(c)(3) research initiative dedicated to advancing a rigorous, multi-scale understanding of peripheral mechanical contributions to sensory, motor, and regulatory differences observed in autism spectrum disorder and related conditions.
We integrate biotensegrity theory, fascia as a sensory organ, mechanotransduction, viscoelastic signal filtering, and predictive coding to generate testable hypotheses and mechanism-based research directions.
Research Framework
A biotensegrity-informed hypothesis centered on eight sensor-rich myofascial and visceral interfaces.
