Join Joshua Stott, a Professor of ageing and clinical psychology at University College London, as he dives into the striking rise in autism diagnoses. He reveals alarming statistics showing an eightfold increase in the UK, with a possibility of undercounting 1.2 million autistic individuals. The discussion challenges traditional perceptions of autism, examines new definitions, and highlights the complexities of diagnosing older adults versus youth. Stott's insights prompt us to rethink our understanding of autism and its evolving landscape.
