Dr Sharma published a peer-reviewed research article on diagnostic confusion between Asperger Syndrome and high-functioning autism, which contributed towards the DSMV revisions in the diagnostic criteria of autism.

Dr Sharma has also worked for several different NHS trusts over the last 5 years, diagnosing Autism and ADHD and leading several neurodevelopmental services throughout the United Kingdom.
Dr Sharma completed her Masters in study of children with special needs and conducted an in depth case study of a child with autism. This was in the year 2005 when very few scholars discussed autism.
After spending a year with this high functioning 8 years old autistic child, she started questioning some old school thoughts about social impairments in autism and was curious to research more about this very unique presentation in children. She published her Masters research, which led to a fully funded doctorate at University of Strathclyde in the year 2006. Dr Sharma has been teaching and researching autism since then.
