We are honored to invite you to take a part in the first international meeting on ADHD being hosted jointly by the European Network Adult ADHD (ENAA) and the American professional Society of ADHD and related Disorders (ApSArD), on February 27th – March 1st, 2013.

In recognition of the impact of ADHD on people across the world, the meeting is called “ADHD Worldwide”.

Started about 5 years ago by the leading health care professionals for ADHD in Europe and in the US, the ENAA and ApSArD groups have created webs of teaching and knowledge, accompanied by yearly meetings. This time, we decided to combine our efforts in order to create the first international meeting, unifying both continents. researchers and clinicians from all around the world are going to gather together to exchange new knowledge and experience in the field of ADHD, its etiology, clinical manifestations and treatments.

The meeting is a tailored congress that takes an integrated approach to ADHD evaluation and treatment. professionals in the field will enjoy a high-level scientific program covering the latest perspectives and developments in the different components of ADHD.

This unique collaborative ADHD conference, will be led by prominent professionals in the field, promises to be a dynamic and educational event in the exciting surrounds of Tel Aviv-Jaffa with its distinctive cosmopolitan and energetic atmosphere.

We look forward to meeting you at the ADHD Worldwide in Tel-Aviv.
