Past event
The Neurodivergent Researcher Network is intended to provide a platform for neurodivergent researchers to come together, collaborate, offer mutual support, and share experiences.
Our coffee hours involve open floor discussion, with each focusing on a different ‘hot topic’. In this meeting, we will discuss neurodiversity support at the annual conference. How can conference organisers better cater for neurodivergent delegates? How do you get the most out of academic conferences as a neurodivergent researcher?
