Prof Francesca Happé, PhD, CBE, FBA, FMedSci
Chief Research Officer and
Advisory Board Member
 

Welcome! I'm Professor Francesca Happé, and I'm delighted to introduce myself as the Chief Research Officer at Phoeb-X.

 

With over 30 years of experience in autism research, I'm passionate about advancing our understanding of neurodiversity and developing innovative solutions to support individuals on the autism spectrum.

​

As a Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience at King's College London, I've dedicated my career to exploring the complexities of autism and social cognition. My work has earned me several prestigious recognitions, including a CBE from Queen Elizabeth II for services to the study of autism, and fellowships in the British Academy and the Academy of Medical Sciences.

​

I'm proud to have served as the President of the International Society for Autism Research and to have authored numerous books and research papers on autism. My goal has always been to bridge the gap between scientific understanding and practical support for neurodiverse individuals.

​

At Phoeb-X, I'm excited to continue this mission, working alongside a dedicated team to create innovative solutions that empower and support people with autism and other neurodevelopmental conditions. I look forward to contributing my expertise to our groundbreaking work and making a positive impact on the lives of those we serve.
