About

    ADHD, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects children and adults. It is characterized by symptoms such as difficulty paying attention, impulsiveness, and hyperactivity. Research in this area focuses on understanding the underlying causes of ADHD, identifying effective treatments and interventions, and improving diagnosis and management strategies. Studies often involve behavioral and cognitive assessments, neuroimaging techniques, genetic analyses, and clinical trials of medication and therapy. ADHD research also explores the impact of the disorder on academic, social, and emotional functioning, as well as potential comorbidities such as anxiety, depression, and learning disabilities.
