Research summary
AI-generated

Leslie A. Hulvershorn studies mental health in children and adolescents, with a focus on how brain activity relates to conditions like ADHD, disruptive behavior, and risk for substance use. Much of the work combines brain imaging (looking at how brain circuits respond during risky decision-making and reward) with family, trauma, and social risk factors, and also examines how to improve the delivery of youth behavioral health care in real-world settings such as primary care and the juvenile justice system.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
