Biweekly Sundays 4 pm ET (see our page for all groups)

About the host
Hi there, I am a university researcher and am leading S&PAA support group meetings to help people caring for someone on the autism-schizophrenia spectrum. I'm the author of a book on the cognitive impact of translation on mental health forthcoming from Edinburgh University Press. My book compares works by famous modernist writers-translators who experienced mental health disorders, and who weren't afraid to "come out" at times when it was even more difficult to say so: it's the first book to theorize the therapeutic dimension of the translation process. At the university where I'm based, I'm also Lead Reviewer of the Research Ethics Committee: I review research applications on politically sensitive topics and involving vulnerable users such as children or patients with disabilities, so I'm used to lead groups and provide ethical advice in tough situations. Looking forward to meeting you, sharing coping strategies and tips, and helping you and your loved ones in any way I can! Dr V. Lane
