In a whirlwind trip, Brock met up with Dr. Helen Taylor of the University of Strathclyde and Cambridge University (Dyslexia as an Evolutionary Advantage) to speak at GCHQ (Government Communications Headquarters) – the United Kingdom’s Code and Cypher School, Imperial College (Britain’s MIT)’s Celebration of Neurodiversity in STEM (below), the Dyslexia Show 2023, and many colleagues and experts that we have know for years through their works and research, but never had a chance to meet in person.
