The public is invited to a webinar to ask questions of leading specialists about the latest research into Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Professor Samuele Cortese and Dr Edoardo Ostinelli will take questions in an ‘ask the expert’ event on Tuesday 18 March from 7pm to 8pm.

Asking your questions will be Steve Bond, who was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult and is parent to a neurodivergent family. Steve has worked as a public contributor championing inclusive research and the benefits of community led research, and he runs a video production company providing employment for disabled people.

Guests must sign up in advance using this form where they can enter their question. They will also be able to ask their question during the event in the text box provided.

Participating in health research helps develop new treatments, improve the NHS, public health and social care and save lives.

The NHS, public health and social care supports research by giving patients opportunities to take part in trials. Healthy people can also take part so results can be compared to those with a medical condition.

Patients are also encouraged to ask their doctor or health professional about research opportunities and to sign up to hear about current studies on the Be Part of Research website.
