Jonathan Green (psychiatrist)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jonathan Green is a British professor of child and adolescent psychiatry at the University of Manchester. He is a specialist in autism spectrum disorders. He co-led the first study in the United Kingdom into ICD Asperger syndrome and has written research studies about social and language development in Autism Spectrum Disorder, co-morbidity and treatment intervention.[1][2][3]

In 2015, Green's research tracked 54 young children from infancy to understand how autism develops in the earliest childhood years including what happens during the months and years before a diagnosis of the disorder.[4] In 2018 he was appointed Senior Investigator by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR).[5]

In 2023, Green proposed a model of autism as "emergent and transactional", incorporating neurodiversity perspectives in addition to clinical and research perspectives.[6][7][8]
