Hoping for a world of acceptance and support for individuals with autism. Awareness is only the beginning. Autism is not;
- a diseases to be cured
- an anomaly to be fixed
- linear
- males only
- children only
- caused by refrigerator mums or vaccines
- a trend.

Meet the team of EU-SABV!
This is a group of researchers with a special interest of including sex as a biological variable into their work.
For the next 4 years, this team will work to enhance current SABV policy in preclinical research!

First day of my Erasmus visit at Nencki Institute started quite strong! Within the second hour of my arrival, I got to meet Prof Harold Varmus- 1989 Physiology/Medicine Nobel prize laureate 🤩
Is this how life is in Nencki? Or am I in a dream? Cant lie..look forward to day 2!

Starting the second week focused on Young researchers with a #COSTAcademy Leadership workshop. 🧑🔬 We got to engage in inspiring discussions with this amazing group. Thanks for the great insights and experiences of leadership roles by Indrek Heinla, Milorad Dragic, Neda Nikolovski and Olesia Kulyk. 👏

Until now, being in a COST Action felt like something almost unreal. With the leadership training, I finally saw its reality and know what I need to do. On October 22, I’ll be back in Brussels for the kick off meeting of our action. Can’t wait to have the whole team together 🩶 #COST

I was supposed to rest after my dissertation. So I checked my calendar, only to realise that August is the only time to submit 4 project proposals and 1 report before I leave for a conference, concert and workshop in early Sept and a month long research visit in late Sept 🥲 #autism #busypostdoc

Not all rats enjoy playing as much and there are ‘popular’ ones. This makes some others feel left out and exhibit anxiety like behaviour.
Not all controls are controls and individual differences should be carefully evaluated.
Play behaviour is tricky 🤓🩷

First of all, thank you to the person who showed up for my poster at 8am sharp. That is commitment.
Secondly, thanks to TUBITAK for funding my travel so I could talk about my research!
Had so many people to discuss that I didnt realise i was up for 150mins! 🫣

Third meeting that is planned to be in Cape Town..
IBRO-2027 being in Cape Town was accelerating and made me think ohh its a once in a life time thingy.
Then came the INSAR-2027 meeting in Cape Town
Now here goes IBNS-2026 🙈
Hope I can get the same funding that got me to Tromso for Cape Town 🫶🏻
