Welcome to Bluesky! Congrats on presenting at #AECongress25 in Dublin...that’s a fascinating preliminary finding about neurodivergent girls and puberty timing. Curious what measures/age ranges you used and what your next steps for replication are?

A bit late, as I just joined Bluesky but-
Really enjoyed #AECongress25 in Dublin last week and met wonderful people
Here I am presenting preliminary findings (early results needing replication) showing neurodivergent girls may be more likely to experience early or late puberty

So my keynote at #AECongress25 involved a lot of memes to illustrate my points about how to understand and apply the neurodiversity paradigm.
The focus is on LIBERATION from OPPRESSIVE systems and beliefs.
This will work best, I believe, when we COLLECTIVISE our action.

Hi Stuart! Check out this week’s Autism Europe Congress at #AEC2025 and #AECONGRESS25
The education presentations are 👌
Yes to #neuro-affirming teaching.
No to interventions that aim to ‘normalise’ neurodivergent learners, eg by ‘closing the gap’ & chasing standardisation.

Toudal provides a definition of Quality of Life:
Work focuses on work, education and contributions.
For autistic people, this can be:
- not be disturbed
- be understood
- have a purpose
- accepting my autism to create harmony in my life
- access to interests
All human needs.

First invited speaker of Autism Europe is Maja Toudal speaking on neurodiversity-affirming stress management and burnout prevention.
Toudal introduces a 8yo girl experiencing stress, overwhelm & meltdown. She introduces 2 scenarios: 1. Expected to go to school & not recovered.

Very nice talk from Norma Foley including the acknowledgement that a lot remains to be done to tackle the exclusion and isolation that autistic people continue to face. #AECongress25 #AutismEurope2025
