Dr Laura Seymour
Co-Lead of Neurodiversity at Oxford
I am a Research Associate at Birkbeck University of London and a fixed-term stipendiary lecturer in English at The Queen's College. I research neurodiversity in early modern European writing, and neurodiversity-inclusive pedagogy. I am currently finishing Shakespeare and Neurodiversity (Cambridge University Press, 2024), a guide to teaching Shakespeare in a neurodiversity-inclusive way. As an autistic worker and researcher, I am particularly interested in ableism in academia, and how it intersects with factors like race, class, and job precarity.
I am always learning about all aspects of neurodiversity and keen to learn from others' experiences.
