Autism and Aging Research- Autistic people show greater cognitive and memory declines than non-autistic people. Researchers are looking into gender and genomic explanations. My alternative hypothesis: social isolation and exclusion from education and employment #autism #INSAR2024
Absolutely brilliant presentation from @WennLawson on monotropism, interoception and object permanence at #INSAR2024 Community Conference #autism #research #ActuallyAutistic
Heading off to #INSAR2024
Looking forward to lots of great sessions, learning new things and catching up IRL with so many awesome #ActuallyAutistic colleagues - but anxious about being away from my safe space. #autism #research @AutismINSAR
Getting excited about the conference before the conference. @AutismINSAR Community Conference #autism #Melbourne #community
