Thank you for your interest. I used the RCAD and the ASC-ASD as measures of mental health, I used the age of first period as a proxy for timing of puberty. I am very interested in replicating these findings although research can take years and also requires funding, but hopefully I can :)
A bit late, as I just joined Bluesky but-
Really enjoyed #AECongress25 in Dublin last week and met wonderful people
Here I am presenting preliminary findings (early results needing replication) showing neurodivergent girls may be more likely to experience early or late puberty
Hi everyone, finally joined Bluesky.
Finished my PhD at Edinburgh and now working with Dr Alex Hendry on the START trial at Oxford
