Spring 2017
The NVLD Project sponsored a NVLD consensus meeting at Columbia University Medical Center. An advisory committee was created to define NVLD in a format that would be acceptable for inclusion in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM).
Columbia University Medical Center
The NVLD Project is supporting an important research study at Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC) in New York City. The information obtained from this research will shed considerable light on how NVLD develops in childhood and how we treat this disorder in the future. Currently, children between the ages of 7 and 16 are invited to participate.
