In addition to her expertise in animal behavior, Dr. Grandin is perhaps the most accomplished and well-known adult with autism in the world. Her life story was the subject of the acclaimed 2010 HBO biography, “Temple Grandin,” winner of seven Emmy awards and a Golden Globe. In this talk, she shares information that has been learned about autism through scientific research and also conveys practical ways of relating to autistic children and adults. She describes her thinking process as an individual with autism as sensory or “bottom up thinking.”
