Spoonie Scholars at UAB is kicking off our Q&A Cafe: Professional Development Series! Sept 30, 12-1pm | Lister Hill Library (Large Conf. Room) Dr. Robert van Waardenburg will share his journey navigating academia with dyslexia. Join us for snacks, coffee/tea, and community!

In this episode I interview John, a neurodivergent validation engineer. Listen to hear about biopharmaceutical production, building a career in industry, and choosing not to disclose autism or ADHD in the workplace. www.disabledscientists.com/2437552/epis...

Are you a professor, doctor, or research professional with a #disability #chronicillness or #neurodiversity and want to help the next generation of scholars with disabilities? Our graduate and professional student organization would love to hear from you!

Are you a chronically ill/disabled/ neurodivergent scholar @ UAB? Check us out! The Fall Welcome meeting “No Spoons? No Problem!” is Friday Aug 15th at 12pm in THT936. (Far away? Blue and north green buses stop at an adjacent building Kaul/Dentistry). We will have trivia, snacks, and tea/cocoa.

Find our table at the UAB Hill Student Center in front of One Stop 2-3pm today for the ADA Anniversary Event

Happy #DisabilityPrideMonth ! It’s okay if you aren’t proud about your #disability and it’s okay to have a complicated relationship with your disability (because lord knows I do). While I’m not often proud of my disability, I am disabled and I am proud of myself. #fibromyalgia #adhd #chronicillness

Please share! For Disability Pride Month, we are seeking neurodivergent academic faculty, instructors, & researchers at all levels to participate in a brief anonymous survey about their work experiences, coping strategies, & well-being. For info, go to: salisbury.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Weekend read: Body Friend by Katherine Brabon. 10/10 would recommend especially if you are trying to understand the experience of a loved one with #chronicillness and #chronicpain or are chronically ill yourself and want a relatable book. #booksky #disability
