Preliminary findings and feasibility of mid‐life cognitive and blood‐based biomarker assessments in adults with and without prospectively studied ADHD diagnosis in childhood
Understanding the association between rigorous, prospectively diagnosed ADHD and prevalent age-related diseases, such as AD, is a pressing concern given the increased prevalence of ADHD in adulthood. Our research is beginning to address this need including demonstrating feasibility of measuring cognition and AD biomarkers in midlife adults with ADHD histories.
