Event Description

This event eexposes the devastating effects of systemic gender bias in autism research and services

For decades, autism research has focused overwhelmingly on boys and men, and some autism researchers even see autism itself as “masculine.” Beyond highlighting autism’s manifestations in women and girls, this event illuminates the entangled matter of gender/sex, autism, and neuroscience, and exposes the devastating effects of systemic gender bias in autism research and services.
