The Center for ADHD is one of the largest medical center-based ADHD specialty care clinics in the world in terms of research and clinic volume. It was established in 2005 as a collaboration between the Divisions of General and Community Pediatrics; Behavioral and Developmental Pediatrics; Neurology; Rehabilitation Medicine and Behavioral Medicine and Clinical Psychology.
The center has become the international leader in research for children, adolescents and young adults with ADHD and translating those findings into clinical care. Through these efforts, the Center for ADHD has truly improved outcomes for children and adolescents with ADHD, locally and across the country. Over the past 10 years, the Center for ADHD has procured over $32.5 million in federal funding from the National Institutes of Health, the Institute for Educational Sciences, and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. The team has produced 364 publications, many of which are in high-impact journals.
The team's integrated desktop and simulator driver safety training for teens with ADHD reduced crash risk by a remarkable 40 percent. The findings were published in "The New England Journal of Medicine" and were featured in national media. The training is now being offered to the public.
