2008 Young Scientist Research Fund Awards

Congratulations to our  2007 Award Recipients!

CHADD's Young Scientist Research Fund Awards recognize young researchers who are making contributions to the understanding of AD/HD.  Through the Fund, CHADD will support three researchers with an unrestricted cash award of $5,000 each, recognition at the 2008 CHADD 20th Annual International Conference and an allowance to cover conference attendance (travel, hotel, registration), plus a one-year CHADD professional membership.

Applicants must be in the process of completing a doctoral degree or must have completed such a degree within the last three years. Research may address any area relevant to AD/HD, including, but not limited to: biological/genetic underpinnings of the disorder; treatment efficacy; impact on the individual or family; school or workplace accommodations; social stigma and discrimination; public health; and epidemiology.

The awards are supported through generous funding from McNeil Pediatrics Division of McNeil-PPC, Inc. and by a number of individual donations. CHADD is grateful to all contributors to the Young Scientist Research Fund.

Deadline for completed applications for the 2008 awards is May 13, 2008.
