Autism Research—What’s New in April 2023?
This research roundup picks out some of the current papers on autistic lives. This particular group has some important focus on autistic adults and their quality of life, and on intersectionality & healthcare outcomes. There is also interesting research news on diagnosis for children.
Can school ever be right for autistic people?
In the current ‘industrial’ educational paradigm, schools aren’t accessible for autistic people. They both contribute to and cause trauma for autistic individuals. With reasonable adjustment and an embodiment focus, steps can be made to begin to change this. However, a wholesale reform of the educational system, is what is actually needed.
I am Black, I am a woman, I am autistic
Black, woman and autistic. These attributes all intersect and make my experience of the world and how I am perceived markedly different from my non-Black autistic peers. Racism, sexism, misogyny and ableism are things I cannot escape.

Got something to say?
We commission blogs from neurodivergent writers. We are particularly keen to hear from people of colour, older people, and non-speaking members of our community. Help us in our mission to amplify the views and voices that are most often left unseen and unheard.
