Motor Disruption in Autism
Insights for Practice, Intervention, and Research
We are very pleased to announce that registration for our first seminar is now open! To register, please click here.
This seminar aims to improve practical health understanding of the role of movement in autism spectrum disorder, with genuine dialogue between research and practice. New evidence shows movements are fundamentally disrupted, and a possible aetiological origin of autism. This seminar, funded by the Scottish Government’s Innovation in Autism, brings to Scotland the world’s best research, psychiatric expertise, and practical experience, shedding light on the motor disorder in autism, with new insights for improved practice.
Registration is free, places are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis,
This seminar is aligned to the National Autism Training Framework (NHS Education for Scotland) for ‘enhanced’ and ‘expert’ health care staff regularly engaged with individuals with autism in diagnostic, therapeutic, or care capacities. It will be particularly important for regional lead officers, health professionals, allied health professionals, educators, and researchers working in autism. Individuals with autism and stakeholders are welcome.
