Among diagnosed autistic adults "the majority (80%)... had thought about or attempted suicide in their lifetime, of which 38.7% had made a suicide plan and 15% had attempted suicide" journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13… "employment status was not a significant predictor of suicidal behavior"

So pretty 😍
Always juggling between kid stuff and work (thus my delayed post) but glad I took the time to enjoy another super fun Saturday in Pittsburgh with the kids (and go Steelers!). @Momademia
Yay! We are finally open to recruitment again (after pausing to deal with scammers - what a scourge on science they are). If you care about autism in adulthood, participatory approaches, or the outcomes that matter to autistic people, please help spread the word about our study!

I have been fortunate to collaborate with Martine in our inpatient study. This is surely going to be incredible!

YES, this! So important to not assume measures work well just because they are widely used or that they work the same in autism. Hoping our #PittACE work that @DrJessicaPhd is involved in to develop a self-report of suicidality will help. @PittREAACT

I was nervous with this coming out today. It's more about me/my path vs. the research per se (like others in Synaptic). But it was a fun trip down memory lane to listen and reflect on my career. I'm lucky that (despite the stress) I do love what I do. @PittREAACT @PittPsychiatry
