1/7. I’m so thrilled to share our preprint on mental health in autistic females, co-written by @mengchuanlai and an amazing team!
This is probably one of the piece of work I’m most proud of and that I consider most important. 🧵👇

6/7. Results - implications: Poor mental health can have severe consequences. Tailored approaches are critical for the specific profiles of autistic females and there is still a lack of research on this topic.
Excited to share visualizations of our newest paper
with @AdelineLacroix2 & @mengchuanlai
This brief paper compiles recommendations for physicians & clinicians supporting autistic adults in their care!

So thrilled about our new short paper just out in @CMAJ ! This is a practice paper to help providers supporting healthcare for autistic patients.
Thank you so much @drlouisalyman and @mengchuanlai ! I was so glad to work with you on this important project!
Excited to share this @CMAJ "Practice: Five Ways to Support..." KT piece led by two brilliant @CAMHResearch post-docs @drlouisalyman@AdelineLacroix2 on how providers can support #autistic individuals receiving health care. https://t.co/GJdbD1aOKo
If you work in psychology in an area without Registered Reports, you will see that the main hypotheses in papers are almost always supported. If your peers publish Registered Reports, you will also have access to null results, which should be very common. https://t.co/PNqqicywOz
Interested in a study to help us understanding coping strategies in autism, ADHD, Learning Disability, Social Anxiety, Depression, and Tic Disorder?

How autistic groups build towers: "every member... participated in the tasks" "no participants... built a separate tower from the rest of the group" & "no...group ever rebuilt a tower after already beginning one" https://t.co/EPyZLUcee8 unlike nonautistic & mixed groups (Table 4)
Happy to share our new study on flexibility in autism published in @MolecularAutism ! We explored how the social nature of stimuli influences emotional shifting and the role of sex differences. Here’s a summary 👇

Our results suggest that the social context of stimuli, beyond their emotional content, plays a critical role in flexibility challenges in autism.
👉 These findings also highlight the need to consider sex differences in autism research.
