The IoN RDPU presents a Masterclass series on Neurodiversity.

Having begun in February 2021, the series will be entering its second year in 2022. We aim to showcase a diverse range of speakers and subjects from across the globe and the Neurodiverse community, academia, and industry . Previous speakers include Judy Singer, Prof Simon Baron Cohen. All previous sessions can be watched back here.

All are welcome to join.

Sessions take place monthly, on the fourth Thursday of the month. Register here; a link to the zoom sessions will be sent to you the day before the webinar.

The next session is on Thursday 23rd June with Dr Amanda Kirby. Amanda is an emeritus professor at the University of South Wales and an honorary professor at Cardiff University.
