Thu, September 10, 2015
Beth Tarini, associate professor of pediatrics and communicable diseases, is launching a study to see whether the martial art of tae kwon do could be an effective therapy - or even an alternative to prescription medication - for kids with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Dr. Tarini is working with Master Dan Vigil on the “Martials Arts as ADD/ADHD Treatment Trial (aka the MAAT Trial)”
She is using the online crowdfunding site Crowdrise to raise money for the research.
