Getting autism insight on your study at an early stage can make a big difference to your research and its impact.
We offer all researcher members of Autistica Network the opportunity to gain autism insight on their study from the Autistica Insight Group.
What is the Autistica Insight Group?
The Autistica Insight Group is a group of autistic adults, parents and carers who share their personal experience of autism with researchers in order to improve the research process. The Autistica Insight Group members are offered training to help them feel confident with scientific and research methodology.
How can they help your research?
Autistica Insight Group Members can get involved in activities such as:
- attending workshops or focus groups

Members can also provide advice to ensure that:
- research materials are autism-appropriate
