Biography:

Dr. Robb Mapou is a nationally-recognized expert on assessment of learning disabilities and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adults. His 2009 book, Adult Learning Disabilities and ADHD: Research Informed Assessment, published by Oxford University Press, was the first to summarize research on learning disabilities and ADHD in adults and use it to guide neuropsychological assessment. Dr. Mapou has written chapters on adult learning disabilities and ADHD assessment, regularly presents continuing education workshops to professionals on the topic, and recently appeared on a segment of Dr. Dean Edell's syndicated program, Medical Breakthroughs. In February 2009, he participated in an invited debate at the annual meeting of the International Neuropsychological Society, during which he argued for comprehensive assessment of learning disabilities in adults. He has served on the editorial boards of Neuropsychology, the Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society, and the Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation. Dr. Mapou is board-certified in clinical neuropsychology by the American Board of Professional Psychology and is in full-time clinical practice with William Stixrud, Ph.D. and Associates, LLC, in Silver Spring, MD, where he specializes in the evaluation of adolescents and adults with learning disabilities and ADHD.
