ADHD & Verslaving
Postponed
Thursday 24th September 2020, Rode Hoed, Amsterdam
Dit congres wordt tot nader order uitgesteld. In oktober 2020 wordt besloten of, wanneer en waar dit congres gehouden zal worden.
Chairs: Prof. Arnt Schellekens and prof. Johan Franck.
Verslaving en ADHD komen vaak samen voor, maar worden veelal niet in deze combinatie herkend én behandeld. Dit terwijl een gecombineerde aanpak van beide stoornissen beduidend effectiever is gebleken. Op dit symposium wordt door prominente sprekers de meest recente wetenschappelijke en klinische kennis samengevat om anno 2020 deze comorbiditeit te herkennen en in behandelingen aan de orde te stellen.
