Hi

I am new on wrong planet. I am a veterinarian with a PhD in neuroscience. I am working with neuroimagin and I am studying Alzheimer. I also have Asperger's syndrome. Are there other persons that also have a PhD or are either veterinarians or medical doctors with Asperger's syndrome? I discoved that I had Asperger syndrome when I had passed my last exam in veterinarian school.

Yes, there are a few of us here. :nerdy: There's a long thread on "highly educated aspies" that you can read through:

Not all PhD's, but mostly people with some kind of academic background or interests.

Nice to see fellow Aspies with PhD's. Just about proves that even we are capable of amazing things.
