Our Science

Targeting Executive Function Through a Novel Mechanism

Executive functioning encompasses the cognitive processes that regulate attention, behavior, and emotional responses. Impairment in these processes is a hallmark of ADHD and other neurological conditions.

Our research focuses on a novel molecular pathway that may improve executive functioning without the side effects commonly associated with stimulant medications.
