“Science Weekly” is a podcast from The Guardian that dives into the biggest discoveries in science and math. This episode tackles why autism is often misdiagnosed in women. Autism researcher William Mandy, PhD, explains that it’s partly to do with differences in the way that males and females present symptoms. Hannah Belcher, who has autism herself, is now studying misdiagnosis for females with autism in her PhD research. She explains what life was like before being diagnosed with autism and the coping strategies she’s employed.
