Kenneth Dyson, PhD, is an Academic Associate and Manager of the听Azrieli Centre for Autism Research (ACAR).
What drives your work?
I am driven to continually improve the way that scientific discoveries are made and subsequently made available for the benefit of society. Integral to this improvement are:
- Creating an atmosphere of cooperation and collaboration among and between researchers, clinicians, and patients
- Providing the resources for Open Science best practices
- Facilitating knowledge sharing through a comprehensive professional training program.
What makes ACAR unique?
ACAR is unique among research centres given its vast interdisciplinary approach. There are members and partners who perform research and provide clinical care from very different, but complementary fields.
What do you hope to bring to ACAR in your role?
My goal is to further the connections between our ACAR members, the autism and neurodevelopmental science community, and the neurodiverse population at large.
I feel that it is听important that there be a two-way street when it comes to health research and clinical care. Recipients of that care must have听a large say in the process. This is to the benefit of researchers, so they can focus research on what the community needs; clinicians, so that they are given the tools to best serve their patients;听and听community, so that their diverse needs are met.
