How Neurodiversity-inspired Thinking Is Casting A New Light On Brain Development Research, With Neurodivergent Young People At Its Core

People with autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are more likely to develop depression during adolescence than their neurotypical peers.

Regulating Emotions – Strengthening Adolescent Resilience (RE-STAR) is a four-year research programme at King’s College London funded by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) in which we are trying to figure out why this is the case. Our goal is to use our findings to develop new and innovative ways to cut the neurodivergence-depression link.
