Finally, the amazing Professor Camilla Nord presents on interoception - including some cool lived experience work on body sensations, and work on disgust and gastric rhythms, alongside work on energy conservation. #BAP2025

My new paper with Jennifer Cook sets out potential reasons for high rates of Parkinson's disease (PD) diagnosis in the autistic population: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... @mrccbu.bsky.social @thechbh.bsky.social 🧵1/n

High rates of Parkinson’s Disease diagnosis in the autistic population: true co-occurrence or a product of overlapping traits?

Older autistic adult literature is sparse, and little is known about the aging autistic population. However, recent evidence suggests an increased pre…
