Agenda: 7:00pm: Check-In and Appetizers – 7:45pm: Speakers and Dinner CME Credit: 1.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits Andrea Chronis-Tuscano, PhD is a Professor of Psychology and Director of Clinical Training at the University of Maryland, where she directs the Maryland ADHD Program. Andrea Chronis-Tuscano received her Ph.D. from the State University of New York at Buffalo, and completed a clinical internship at the University of Chicago. She joined the faculty of the University of Maryland-College Park in 2002. Dr. Chronis-Tuscano's research focuses broadly on understanding early predictors of developmental outcomes for children with Attention- Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (including depression and alcohol/substance use) and developing novel treatments which target these early risk and protective factors. Much of this research has addressed issues related to maternal parenting and psychopathology (namely, maternal depression and ADHD). A secondary line of research examines the trajectory of young children displaying early behavioral inhibition, including the development of psychopathology, and to intervene by targeting key moderators of outcome (e.g., parenting and social relationships). Dr. Chronis-Tuscano is the Associate Editor of the Journal of Consulting & Clinical Psychology; the Associate Editor of the Journal of Clinical Child & Adolescent Psychology; Fellow of the Association for Psychological Science; Secretary/Treasurer of the International Society for Research in Child and Adolescent Psychopathology; Scientific Advisor to the NIMH Outreach Partnership with the State of Maryland; and a member of the CHADD Professional Advisory Board. She is the recipient of multiple NIH grants and has served on the NIMH Interventions Committee for Children and their Families. Recent projects conducted by the Maryland Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Program directed by Dr. Chronis-Tuscano include: (1) the development and evaluation of an integrated parenting training – emotion coaching program for young children with ADHD; (2) a SMART Trial to examine sequencing of stimulant medication and behavioral parent training for mothers with ADHD; (3) a large-scale trial of a parent-child intervention for families of inhibited preschool-aged children; and (4) the development and evaluation of a brief motivational interviewing – behavioral activation program for college students with ADHD. Learning Objectives: At the conclusion of this event, participants will: 1. To gain familiarity with evidence-based behavioral interventions for children with ADHD, with particular focus on parent behavior management training.2. To recognize the impact of parental ADHD and depression on developmental and treatment outcomes for children with ADHD.3. To learn the importance of assessing and addressing parent psychopathology within the context of evidence-based treatments to enhance child outcomes.
