Around ADHD explores today's scientific understanding of ADHD, moving away from traditional explanations rooted in lack of discipline or poor parenting. The event addresses genetics, neurobiology, and how heredity, environment, and the brain's attention regulation mechanisms interact. Neurodiversity is central to understanding that not all brains work alike.
Chief physician and professor Per Hove Thomsen from Aarhus University Hospital discusses symptoms, causes, treatment options, and different support needs with host Christian Cherry from LIFE Foundation. The conversation also challenges common misconceptions and is recorded for the podcast series Genistreg.
The event is part of the Public University's knowledge festival Hearts & Minds. Admission costs 50 kr. The meeting takes place at Dokk1/Aarhus Central Library.
