About Dr. Vermeulen in his own words.

Peter got a Bachelor in Family Sciences (Brussels, 1985) and in the same year also a Master in Psychology and Pedagogical Sciences at the oldest university of Belgium, the University of Leuven. Because he got the taste of studying at the oldest universities, Peter started to study at the oldest university of The Netherlands, Leiden, while already working in the field of autism. There he obtained his PhD in 2002 with his research on late diagnosis in people on the autism spectrum with above average IQs.
So, officially it is: Dr. Vermeulen Peter, MSc, PhD but Peter just prefers to be called Peter
Peter started his career in the field of autism in 1987, working for the Vlaamse Vereniging Autisme (Flemish Autism Society) as diagnostician and home trainer for families on autistic children.
He later become the director of the home training center and started gradually to share his experiences via presentations and books.
Peter wrote more than 15 books, some of them translated into more than 10 languages.
Peter works for ‘sterkmakers in autisme’ (strongmakers in autism), a non-profit organization that makes people and organizations strong in their ambition towards full inclusion of autistic people.
Peter created Autism in Context, where autism is seen in context. He is teaching, training and presenting all over the globe and in his work he focuses on two topics in particular: the autistic thinking (autism as context blindness) and happiness & well-being in autism.
In 2019 Peter received the Passwerk Life Time Achievement Award for his more than 30 years contribution to the autism community in Flanders.
When Peter is not presenting, writing, driving or flying around for his job, he can usually be found on one of his 4 bicycles, trying to imitate Tour de France winners, hereby being oblivious to his age and physical state. When tired from cycling, he can be found at home, with his wife and their dog (which actually is more a Gremlin than a dog). Or he is playing with his 3 grandchildren. Because the Gremlin loves the beach, Peter often spends his weekends at the seaside, savouring seafood and  – being a descendant of a brewing family –  enjoying a good beer.
