Audhd & Women: Grounded In Research & Lived Experience

About

Explore how autism and ADHD overlap, interact and complement each other in women. With Q&A.

What does it mean to “be AuDHD”? Why do so many women only get diagnosed later in life? When someone lives at the intersection of autism and ADHD - known as AuDHD - the result can be a unique but often misunderstood neurotype.

Join Dr Emma Craddock in exploring the combined diagnoses of autism and ADHD, focusing on women’s experiences of receiving a late diagnosis in adulthood. She will shed light on why neurodivergence’s diagnosis is often missed in women. Drawing on scientific research and personal experience, this talk will consider what it means to be AuDHD - and how this differs from living with ADHD or autism alone.

Speaker Bio: Dr Emma Craddock is a Senior Lecturer in Health Research at Birmingham City University and Co-Editor of the academic journal “Health”. As a late-diagnosed AuDHD woman herself, she was interested in this unique experience - leading her to conduct the first study exploring women’s experiences of adulthood AuDHD diagnoses. She is also the author of “Living Against Austerity: A feminist investigation of doing activism and being activist” (Bristol University Press, 2020). Her research on gendered health inequalities has shaped policy debates and attracted international media attention, featuring in outlets such as BBC News, Tatler Hong Kong, and 360Info, reaching over 1.8 million readers.
