Dr. Robison published his first research study on ADHD in 2008, which was one of the first papers to highlight the role of emotional dysregulation in attention disorders. He has led numerous clinical trials of medications for ADHD, including Strattera, Daytrana, Concerta, Vyvanse and more, and has published on gender differences in ADHD, personality factors, and co-occurring conditions such as Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD).
