Bernadette Grosjean. MD.
Psychiatric Grand Round Dalhousie University. Nova Scotia, Canada. December 13, 2023
Dehumanizing representations of autistic people and their families are not new. In recent decades, old myths about autism including ones about autistic people lacking empathy or theory of mind, have been challenged by biology, neuroimaging and autistic advocates. Unfortunately, the dark shadow of false beliefs is still very present in our collective unconscious.
In this talk, Dr. Grosjean gives an update about autistic adults (without intellectual disability) in particular in women, and how to identify autism in the general population encountered by health care professionals. (The talk is 45 min with 30min Q and A)
