Ep. 31 - Agency, Biowearables, & Grizzly Bears (with Rozarina Md Yusof Howton) Bruce, Kara, and guest Rozarina Md Yusof Howton talk about Roza's research to improve health outcomes (with an eye toward helping autistics); surprising doctors; sensory needs and how these can change with burnout, stress, or chronic health conditions; hyperacuity; and top down vs bottom up thinking. Why, yes, we covered a lot! GUEST BIO: Rozarina Md Yusof Howton was born in Malaysia and did her first degree in London, UK in medical physics. At the time, school was interrupted as she was experiencing burnout without knowing she was autistic. She is now an autistic graduate student at McGill University in the department of experimental medicine. Her research interests include the use of wearables to improve health outcomes. She likes cats, dinosaurs, playmobil models, and wood whittling. Thing of the Day: What is bottom-up thinking in autism?
