dc.description.abstractIt is with great sadness that we note the sudden passing of our colleague and friend Professor Terje Sagvolden, a highly accomplished neuroscientist, well known across the world for his contribution to our understanding of the neurobiology of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Here we pay tribute to this magnificent man and scientist in an intercontinental recognition of his contribution to science. Terje was a wonderful caring person, a kind considerate friend and a brilliant researcher. Terje was inspiring and creative, as well as a visionary. He pioneered collaborative research and forged links between basic and clinical researchers in different disciplines, across different countries. With Terje’s help, the European Network for Hyperkinetic Disorders (Eunethydis), of which he was a founding member, obtained a major EU grant in 1993 that enabled the then participating centres to work on the same ADHD project cross-nationally. The effect of this was to harmonize research efforts in several European groups. This forged the basis for the later projects on genetics and intervention evaluation. In the discussions held at Eunethydis meetings, Terje took up the challenge with his characteristic enthusiasm to demonstrate that the animal model he was using had considerable clinical relevance to ADHD.
