Back from an excellent 16th International Conference on Developmental Coordination Disorder in Hong Kong! I presented work conducted with Amy De Roubaix on the DCD awareness gap (link.springer.com/article/10.1...) and early results from my inhibition while walking study - more on that coming soon!

Today for #NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek we are focusing on when ADHD and DCD (Developmental Coordination Disorder / dyspraxia) co-occur. It is estimated that these neurodivergences occur together in about half of all cases. 🧵1/3.

Join our lab in Geneva, as a postdoc working on #workingmemory, with both Jarrod Lewis-Peacock and myself !
