“You very much feel like a number on a list, just like a piece to move around the board, and not like a human with your own thoughts, feelings, plans.”

Thrilled to share that our manuscript 'Unmasking the professional doctor archetype' (by @drharikeerthan & me) will be published in a future issue of @MedEd_Journal. Time to move away from deficit-based models & recognise the strengths of neurodivergent ways of practicing medicine

Wowed by @PerinatalBirder speaking the TRUTH about perinatal challenges for women with autism and ADHD. Why are clinicians so reluctant to allow patient autonomy? #NDPSIG2024
When your ACF supervisor is researcher goals 🔥🔥🔥
As always, a hugely ‘lightbulb’ and engaging talk from Dr Jess Eccles on the interaction between body and brain! @BendyBrain#NDPSIG2024
