ADHD & AUTISM w/ Susanna Mierau, MD, PhD,
clinical & research neurologist; assistant professor of neurology,
Harvard Medical School; physician investigator, Lurie Center for Autism,
Massachusetts General Hospital; associate neurologist, Division of Cognitive & Behavioral Neurology, Brigham & Women's Hospital; all in Boston, MA
These days, ADHD and autism are often mentioned in the same breath.
This is true on social media. It's true in newspapers and magazines. And it's also true of the professional literature.
By (formal) definition, ADHD is about attention, or impulse control, or physical self-restraint. Or a relative shortage of these.
While autism can show up as a sensory disorientation; or as a glitch in social interaction; or as a repetitive pattern of speech or behavior.
Why then the convergence? And why the popularity of the term AuDHD, taken to mean the presence of both?
On April 24, hear from a clinician who has worked with both populations, and at the adult level.
To register for this lecture, please send E mail to: webmaster@maaddsg.org. Please include your first name and email address.
