Research activityFor the past three decades Halperin has been conducting neuroscientific research, focusing on neuropsychiatric disorders that emerge during childhood but persist throughout life. His approach to research includes integration of clinical, neuropsychological and neurobiological psychology. Halperin specifically focuses on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Currently, he focuses on non-medical interventions for children that are at risk for developing ADHD. As of 2013, he has developed a project out of Queens College called TEAMS (Training Executive Attention and Motor Skills). This specific approach suggests that old fashion childhood games and playing with family can improve executive functioning, working memory, and self-control in children with ADHD. Part of his research includes applying neuroimaging procedures to observe brain functioning in children with maladaptive behaviors who do and do not persist into adulthood. References
