Seminar Title: Developmental Disorders: co-morbidity, subgroups and variability
On Friday 29th June 2012 there is a one day workshop which discusses co-morbidity,
variability and sub-groups within neurodevelopmental disorders being hosted at Kingston
University.
This workshop is part of a seminar series entitled 'Neuro-developmental disorders:
Exploring sensitive methods of assessment across development' which explores recent
findings in neurodevelopmental disorders, with a particular focus on 1) the new research
tools and methods used, 2) discussion of the wider applicability of these new tools and
methods across different neurodevelopmental disorders, 3) identifying future challenges or
controversies when studying neurodevelopmental disorders using a developmental approach.
The seminar series hopes to bring together specialists and established researchers as well
as post-graduates, post-doctoral researchers and early career researchers in
neurodevelopmental disorders.
The series is sponsored by the British Psychological Society and the Williams syndrome
Foundation UK and is being organised by Dr Jo van Herwegen, Dr Emily Farran and Dr Debbie
Riby. In total three seminars will be held around the UK between June 2012 and April
2013.
