Transcripts of the #Spectrum10K webinars held in May have been published. Not that you would know by looking at the HVM or spectrum10k websites. Thankfully Liam O'Dell is keeping a (sharper than mine) eye on this.

The transcripts are at http://www.hopkinsvanmil.co.uk/spectrum-10k-the-consultation

Liam O'Dell's analysis is at https://liamodell.com/2023/09/28/spectrum-10k-consultation-autism-research-dna-hopkins-van-mil-transcripts-webinar-university-of-cambridge-simon-baron-cohen/

The S10K grant agreement is only on my website: https://gizmonaut.net/autism-documents/

#Spectrum10K is organising a series of webinars and drop-in sessions this month. Details at https://www.hopkinsvanmil.co.uk/spectrum-10k-the-consultation

That document also links to Spectrum 10K Themes and Responses to Questions (https://www.hopkinsvanmil.co.uk/s/Formatted-full-QA-document-HVM-FINAL-sx2j.pdf) which prompted me to send another #FoI request (https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/spectrum_10k_changes_to_grant_ap) asking about changes to the grant application and the study protocol.

(S10K grant application is at https://gizmonaut.net/autism-documents/)

In case it's helpful to some I've consolidated on one page the grant agreements of #Spectrum10K and #AIMS-2-Trials I obtained some time ago using Freedom of Information laws.

The #Spectrum10K consultation has been launched.

It mentions: 'There are limitations to what can be changed about the study because of the agreement with the funders.'

It then pretends that 'You can find out more about this agreement here.' but that linked doc does not provide a link to that grant agreement. #SBC must still be trying to hide it.

To find out what #S10K is really about I've published its grant agreement at https://gizmonaut.net/blog/autism/2022/11/spectrum10k-grant-application.html

In that recent Spectrum article: ‘Because the Autism Research Center is part of the University of Cambridge, which is publicly funded, the team and their collaborating National Health Service sites received numerous Freedom of Information Act requests for details of the study, the team’s email exchanges and internal communications.’

Doh!
