«It is interesting to note – underlined by the Association Autism and Society of Turin – that the maximum number of registrations allowed for the course Autism: paradigmatic condition for neurodevelopmental and communication disorders was achieved well in advance with respect to the closing of the registrations themselves, confirming theinterest for the topic by future doctors. While waiting for the study plan of the Degree Course in Medicine and Surgery to dedicate adequate space to neurodevelopmental disorders – and the global perspective that they require -, currently the ADEs represent precious training windowswhich could be used by universities on the national territory. Furthermore, once the ADEs have been established persist in subsequent yearsallowing continuity and continuous updating of the training proposal”.
