about us
NeurodivergNet is a grassroots network created by, and for, neurodivergent individuals. This grassroots network is built to be a safe space for neurodivergent-identifying individuals to find community and guidance. NeurodivergNet is also working to connect and support all individuals through education and advocacy for accessible work environments.
We welcome everyone in the Max Planck Gesellschaft (MPG) community who identifies as neurodivergent (including but not limited to ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia, OCD), whether clinically diagnosed or self-identifying. If you are unsure or would like to learn more about neurodivergence, please visit this website. NeurodivergNet is also working to create spaces for neurodivergent allies to learn and advocate for neurodivergent identifying individuals, which we hope to release later in 2026.

Several individuals have made nice resources for learning about neurodivergence in academia. We are working to develop some items for researchers in Germany, but until then see these links below:

If you have additional items you believe should be included, please contact us.
