This April is Autism Awareness Month, and to kick things off on Brainwaves this week we talked to Dr Emma Scriberras. Emma is a clinical psychologist and lecturer in psychology at Deakin University and the Murdoch Children's Research Institute, and her research aims to investigate whether improving sleep could benefit children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
