“A big variety of important topics and the communicative exchange with colleagues. For me as a foreigner a big gain was to compare the approaches of our work in Europe with the Canadian way.”

"Great speakers; good social networking opportunities, well run and ideal location! Ongoing expansion of my knowledge and confidence in managing an increasingly complex population of patients living with ADHD. Fabulous conference!"
