On Wednesday 18th June, Professor Simon Baron-Cohen, Professor of Developmental Psychopathology at the University of Cambridge and Director of the Autism Research Centre in Cambridge, hosted a forum at the Cambridge Union Society about autism and talent. The forum included talks from Professor Erno Rubik, creator of the Rubik Cube, amongst others, and Cam FM's Jack Winstanley caught up with Simon after the talk.


They talked about how autism misunderstandings can be remedied in society, the ethical debate that may arise surrounding prenatal tests, Simon's personal research and where he would like research to progress to in future years.
