So long, Twitter people. It's been fun! But I'm going to be mostly over on the other blue site now, I think - it's a lot more lively over there. Come find me at or on bsky as @heasutherland.com.

Very excited to be attending the Critical Neurodiversity Studies conference today, from the @NdHumanities network. Sad I can't be there in person, but their online provision is wonderful, and lots of very cool speakers in the lineup. .

If you're interested in autism, religious experience, and people who are minimally-speaking / have higher support needs, do check out this job at U of Aberdeen:. You'd get to work on a very interesting project with a really great team.

The podcast I did about my PhD research with the wonderful Middletown Autism Centre is now out:. (+ Apple & Spotify ). It's a pretty casual chat, not a super technical academic thing - so if you're a carer, practitioner, etc. do give it a listen!.

Thesis corrections were submitted Saturday! Three added sections on the ethics of and participation recruitment for my studies, and also a bit on my epistemology and how that interacted with my methods. Hard work to write them, but glad I did it - the thesis is better with them.

Who on here is going to INSAR this week? #INSAR25. Drop a comment if you'd like to meet up (either before or during! I'm around from Tuesday onwards, minus a few prior commitments) - it'd be great to catch up with people, or to meet people I only know as profile pics on here :).

We're now a month out from INSAR 2025. So it's a good time to mention that, on the Saturday, I'll be on a panel about the neurodiversity paradigm and how it applies to and benefits autistic people with higher support needs. See you there!.
