I came across an interesting article about robot-assisted therapy for autism spectrum disorder, discussing its efficacy and effectiveness from lab to real-world applications. While it doesn't directly address ADHD, it highlights innovative approaches in autism therapy.
Also, there's an article about Pennsylvania researchers and parents forming a new independent committee to shape autism science, which could lead to more focused research in the future.
