DESCRIPTION:A commonly used quote used when talking about autism is: “If
  you’ve met one autistic person\, you’ve met one autistic person”. T
 his quote is used to illustrate the point that autism is an extremely hete
 rogeneous condition. Yet\, variability is rarely acknowledged in research\
 , nor investigated. If high heterogeneity is part and parcel to autism\, w
 e really need to start understanding\, not only what is driving it and how
  it may impact on developmental outcomes\, but more importantly how we can
  use this knowledge to develop effective support. In this talk I will pres
 ent preliminary data providing rather surprising results regarding variabi
 lity in autism. I will also briefly discus how variability can be embraced
  in employment support.
