Dr. Randi Hagerman is an expert in the treatment in neurodevelopmental disorders with expertise in targeted treatments that reverse the neurobiological abnormalities associated with a specific disorder. This new age of targeted treatments has led to new interventions which are changing the trajectories of development for many of these children. Dr. Robert Hendren is a psychiatrist who focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of neurodevelopmental disorders including autism. His research has spanned a variety of illnesses, from autism, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder to eating and impulse control disorders. In 2001 he became director of the MIND Institute at the University of California, Davis, where he developed a strong clinical trials program that has tested many new treatments for autism. Since 2009 as director of child and adolescent psychiatry at UCSF, Dr. Hendren has conducted many clinical studies, including an innovative trial to determine if there is a genomic profile that can predict the response of autistic children to the drug risperdone. He is also gauging the biological effects of alternative treatments such as vitamin B12, vitamin D, Omega-3s and hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) on individuals with autism. See less
