Dr Georgia Pavlopoulou is an assistant professor based at the Department of Psychology and Human Development at University College London and is the lead autism workforce trainer at the Anna Freud Centre. She is the founder of the Group for Research in Relationships in Neurodiversity.   We discuss the relationship and experiences of neurotypical siblings who have a neurodiverse sibling.  The impact this may have on them both positive and negative and as schools what we need to be aware of and what we can do to support them in the role.  Georgia mentions several free access research papers with and for siblings.
