So grateful for more opportunities to hang out with current and future Autism In Adulthood Editorial Board members at #INSAR2023 and hear their ideas for future directions. Come find me if you want to chat about the journal, AASPIRE, or anything else!

I heard so much at #INSAR2023 about the need for participatory research, valid outcome measures, diverse participant samples, and research that matters to autistic adults, their families, and clinicians. Here’s your chance to make that happen! Please spread the word!

Fantastic article in Nature re autistic peoples' (well-founded) demands for inclusion in research.

Honored to have become an INSAR Fellow at #INSAR2024 and deeply, eternally grateful to all the people who have been integrally involved in the work that this honor is based on (including my incredible AASPIRE and Autism In Adulthood teams).
