The Autism Intervention Research Network on Physical Health Autistic Researcher Review Board

In order to increase the involvement of stakeholders in the autism research process, a committee of autistic researchers known as the Autistic Researcher Review Board (ARRB) has been established within the Autism Intervention Research Network on Physical Health (AIR-P). The ARRB includes a multinational group of autistic academics, lecturers, and consultants spanning a wide range of educational backgrounds and career stages. By harnessing the unique perspectives of ARRB members as both researchers and lived experience experts, this organization aims to ensure that the diverse perspectives of autistic individuals are appropriately considered during the conceptualization, conduction, and communication of research findings in the area of autism and physical health. The present commentary provides an introduction to the ARRB, as well as an overview of its guiding principles, research priorities, and goals for the future.
