    AbstractNeurotypicality (NT) and neurodiversity (ND) are two terms used to describe separate ways of thinking and experiencing the world. The prevalence of ND within surgery and allied professions is poorly studied or understood but is likely to be significant and increasing. If our aim is to be truly inclusive, ND's effects on teams and our willingness and ability to adapt adequately must improve.© The Author(s) 2023.
