EP 55: Autism Goes to College x Uniquely Human with Dr. Barry Prizant

For Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month, Autism Goes to College host Katharine O’Brien sits down with Dr. Barry Prizant, pioneering autism researcher, advocate, author, and host of the Uniquely Human podcast. Named after his bestselling book, Uniquely Human, the podcast reflects Dr. Prizant’s long-standing impact on the autism community. For Katharine, this is a dream conversation with one of the people who has deeply shaped her life and work. In this episode, they explore how autism research and advocacy have evolved, what Dr. Prizant sees for autistic students on college campuses today compared to when he began his career, and a preview of his next book, due out later this year. Dr. Prizant is the author of five previous books and is widely recognized as one of the world’s leading experts on autism.
