The Autistic Autism Scholarship Project is an international collaborative project that provides a public, freely accessible database of academic publications on autism authored or co-authored by at least one autistic person.
The project aims to make autistic people’s contributions to knowledge about autism more visible, accessible and researchable. It provides structured ways to explore authors and co-authors, publications, bibliographic metadata, cited references and collaboration networks.
