What would an autistic-friendly university look like? Hear answers from our panel of autistic students, staff and researchers.
Autistic people, who make up an estimated 1-2% of the population, see the world differently.

How do we make our home in an ever-changing world, teeming with living and non-living things? Join us in a hands-on exploration of thousands-of-years-old archaeological sediments that embody histories of long-inhabited landscapes, and of the unseen, often forgotten microorganisms that mediate landscape processes and keep our ecosystem healthy and happy.
The event is split over two venues:
6:30pm-8pm Main University Library at George Square, Teaching Room 1.11.
8pm-10pm Teviot Loft Bar.

This event is a minibus and walking tour of key sites: Loch Leven (where around 1130 the local culdees of St Serf fought a dramatic litigation with their neighbour, the Anglo-French incomer, Sir Robert of Lochore, “the furnace and fire of all iniquity” according to his opponents); the Cross Macduff high above Newburgh (probably a sanctuary site for those accused of crimes), and Markinch
