Overview

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Candidate Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are variations in DNA sequences which have been associated with ADHD risk. These SNPs have been identified in genetic studies by comparing the DNA sequences of people with ADHD to those of unaffected people. Research suggests that the presence of certain SNPs in a person is associated with an increased risk for developing ADHD. This understanding of the genetic basis of ADHD is pivotal for developing better diagnosis, treatments and prevention strategies for the disorder.
