Autism@Manchester is a community of academics, clinicians, practitioners, autistic adults, parents of autistic children and family members working together to achieve quality research with real meaning for people with autism.
Increasingly aware of the concerns of the Autistic community that researchers were not working on issues important to them, Autism@Manchester academics wanted to create an environment that encourages communication and collaboration between researchers and the Autism community.
As Autism affects so many different aspects of life, this approach is particularly important because researchers need to work both across disciplines and with the Autistic community to produce effective research with real meaning and impact for Autistic people.
Autism@Manchester was founded in 2014 and is currently chaired by Dr Emma Gowen. Since then, Autism@Manchester has brought together over 100 academics, clinicians, practitioners, Autistic people (and their family) and provided student researchers with opportunities like through our Summer Experience Internship and our new co-production officer role.
