This talk will core features of autism and identifiable, additional mental health problems. Professor Simonoff will show how mental health problems in autistic people are often overlooked and confused with core symptoms of autism due to a concept called '’diagnostic overshadowing'. We will discuss the theoretical basis for the high levels of mental health problems in autistic people and will reflect on what interventions are currently available and research priorities for the future.
