Research group at Hartford Hospital seeks teenagers with ADHD to participate in a paid research study!

The Olin Neuropsychiatry Research Center of Hartford Hospital/The Institute of Living seeks right-handed teenagers (ages 11-18) with ADHD to participate in an MRI-based study.

Qualified volunteers for the study will participate in several days of novel computerized training exercises for their short-term memory, questionnaires, an interview, neuropsychiatric tests, and two non-invasive brain imaging scans to see the effects of training.

Volunteers will be compensated 20 dollars an hour for two visits at the Olin Center, totaling 4-5 hours, and will complete at-home practice sessions over two weeks.
