Dr Rachel Moseley's research centres on autism and the difficulties that autistic people often face in adulthood. She principally focuses on suicidality, self-injury and mental health in autistic adults, including the comorbidity between autism and certain conditions, like eating disorders. 

Her career began in cognitive neuroscience, and she previously used neurometabolic (MRI, DTI) and electrophysiological (EEG, MEG) methods to investigate language, emotion and social processes in autistic and non-autistic people.

She is passionate about increasing acceptance of neurodivergent minds through public engagement, and improving life for autistic people through her consultancy work and engagement with policy-makers.

"As a neurodivergent artist, the external world is a swirling maze of sensory information that often does not resonate with the inner peace I achieve through meditation and martial arts. Post-pandemic, it seems conflict in all aspects of life is also becoming the standard. I'm not of the opinion that we are meant to live in a state of angst for our entire existence here. 

When you are "in the zone" doing what you love, only the present exists. The act of Creation makes you a positive conduit. Doing so keeps your heart & spirit intact in any circumstance. Peace can become a natural way of living. 

This is why, era after era, each Golden Age is led by artists.  

We remind people of who they really are.

For 2025, my goal as Curator for The 34 Gallery is to provide a space for mental health conversations while celebrating life. It is no secret that the most creative, intuitive and kind-hearted people in our populations are also the most bullied, tormented and marginalized. Let's change this. Get creative."
