Tomorrow, I’ll present at #INSAR2026 a participatory study on autistic and ADHD adults’ quality of life, cognitive and emotional representation of their condition, and neurodiversity movement identification. This wouldn’t have been possibile if INSAR did not grant me an Award. Grateful and hopeful!

I’m also a psychologist in training and a member of a newborn #autism participatory research group in Sapienza. Recently, I focused more on #SciComm in Italian, as I realized my following had close to nothing to read in Italian on ND matters. I’ll try to engage with the awesome work I see here!

Cover of a book by Eleonora Marocchini, “Neurodivergente. Capire e coltivare la diversità dei cervelli umani”, that is something along the lines of “Neurodivergent. Comprehending and cultivating human brains’ diversity”, edited by Tlon. A huge symbol for infinity in rainbow colors pops up at the center of the orange cover.

So many new faces, hi! I’m a neurodivergent PhD in Psychology with a background in Linguistics, turned independent researcher and SciCommer. Last published, a focus group study telling me how bad my early work on #ToM in #autism was. You can find it here (and on the OSF): doi.org/10.1111/1460...

I’m also a psychologist in training and I still do research when I manage. Last published, a focus group study telling me how bad my early work on #ToM in #autism was. You can find it here (and on OSF as a preprint): doi.org/10.1111/1460... I’ll try to engage with the awesome work I see here!
