Verwachtingen kunnen ons onderzoeksproces sturen en resultaten vervormen. Daarom moeten wetenschappers zich tegen die verwachtingen beschermen en #openscience kan daarbij helpen. In het kader van #openscienceweek schreef @liannewolsink.bsky.social hierover een blog: nl.in-mind.org/blog/post/wr...

Excited to be presenting my poster this Friday at #INSAR25!
It dives into the theory of the double empathy problem, with a focus on how well people with and without autism can understand each other’s thoughts when they share (or don’t share) the same neurotype. Come say hi!

During the Inclusive Autism Research Day, people with autism shared with researchers what needs to change in research! The day started with presentations and continued with engaging round table discussions. Immensely proud of what we organized! @mauranevejans.bsky.social
