      I dont personally work with children with ADHD, but the research for do in mice will hopefully benefit those children with ADHD. There is work being done in our group that has looked at people with ADHD and whether they also have problems with an enzyme in their brain. Ive always been interested in neuroscience (the science of the brain) and I did a PHD (became a doctor) by looking into depression, which is also a disorder that affects the brain.
