Skeptics in the Pub TOPIC: Everything You Always Wanted to Know about ADHD
Details
Skeptics in the Pub Calgary has been running monthly since 2008! We started presenting monthly topics in 2018, and many members of our community have either presented or suggested great topics. There is plenty of time to mingle and meet other atheists, humanists, skeptics, and overall great people.
Agenda: we will mix and mingle until about 7:30, then have a 20 minute presentation on a topic of interest, followed by group discussion.
Topic: Everything You Always Wanted to Know about ADHD
There are so many myths surrounding this diagnosis. Join us as Dr. Ross dispells some of the lore and gives us the straight up facts on ADHD!
Our presenter, Dr. Ross has 20 years experience in developmental and behavioural pediatrics. His patience and compassion are a favourite among the staff and kids alike. He loves photography, and will spend hours taking pictures anywhere he can! However his favourite part of his job is to chat about video games (especially Halo) with his patients - where he learns all the best strategies!
A note about respectful behaviour:
We are an inclusive community of atheists, humanists, skeptics and secular freethinkers who welcome people of all backgrounds and identities.
We won't all agree all the time, but disagreement is no excuse for disrespectful behavior. Disagreements should be resolved in a constructive manner and without personal attacks. Challenge ideas not people. Do not insult or put down other participants. Harassment and other exclusionary behavior aren’t acceptable.
