In March 2025, we hosted our Edinburgh conference for the second consecutive year. The event was highly successful. We extend our gratitude to all attendees and are pleased to share the afternoon presentations with you. Here is the presentation given by Dr Andrew Stanfield on Clinical Research.
After finishing his basic specialist training in psychiatry, Dr Stanfield became a clinical lecturer at the University of Edinburgh. In this role, he received a Wellcome Trust Clinical Research Training Fellowship to study the connection between the autism and schizophrenia spectrums.
Following this, he was appointed as a Senior Clinical Research Fellow in the Division of Psychiatry and Co-director of the Patrick Wild Centre.
Dr Stanfield undertakes clinical work as an honorary consultant psychiatrist for NHS Lothian Learning Disability Services, including sessions for the Regional Autism Spectrum Disorders Consultancy Service.
He is also a founding board member of Tailor Ed Foundation, a lottery funded charity which provides behavioural interventions to children with autism.
