In the space of a week, I've had a paper accepted for publication in @JSATandF, presented a talk at the @BSC2024Strath conference in Glasgow, and, *most importantly by far(!!!)*, I had the absolute honour to marry @LVThurston!!! What a week!!!

[Dr Luke P Vinter @LPVinter]

Had the opportunity to facilitate a Criminology taster workshop today at @DerbyUni with some great Year 12 students from @RedhillAcademy. We did a little workshop centred around the theme of prisons. They were a really articulate and interactive bunch!

[Dr Luke P Vinter @LPVinter]

It has been a pleasure to deliver an invited talk at @UCLanCJP's Sexual Offending, Vulnerability and Policing conference. My talk explored why some autistic individuals engage in sexual crime, how they make sense of their offending, and what this may mean for prevention @DerbyUni

Last week, we took @DerbyUni Criminology, Policing & Sociology students to Berlin, inc visits to the Stasi Prison Museum & Sachsenhausen. They really seemed to derive a sense of enrichment from the trip, & engaged fantastically with our tour guides- they really did Derby proud 😊

[Dr Nicole Renehan @nikitarenee37]

📢Still looking for participants for this project. The perspectives of neurodivergent-led organisations are really vital towards achieving neuro-inclusivity. The discussions I have had so far have been so invigorating & are making such a contribution already to the project!📢
