Apr 4 Autism in Media: Fantasy Vs. Reality

Dr. Ryan Kelly is an author and psychologist with a diverse clientele and practice. He is an award-winning researcher and college instructor, and is co-creator and -illustrator of Max Gamer, the first autistic superhero comic book. As an acclaimed pioneer in “geek therapy”, Ryan travels monthly to comic and gaming conventions to speak on how to use games (e.g., D&D, Video Games) and science to help people, and is often featured in popular news outlets and podcasts (e.g., WNBC, Fox, SyFy, Variety, Huffpost, Psychology Today, etc.). More than anything, he wishes he was a space cowboy. @DrRKelly
