Her research focuses on attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder ADHD , and has approached the disorder from the vantage points of epidemiology, etiology, and treatment. Currently, she is principal investigator on an R01 grant investigating methylphenidate effects in children with ADHD, including predictors and moderators of methylphenidate response.
She also studies the contribution of environmental exposures e. In addition, Dr. Currently, she is the principal investigator on an NIMH-funded R01 aimed at characterizing effects of abrupt methylphenidate discontinuation, including evaluating genetic and phenotypic moderators of effect. Froehlich has a strong interest in interprofessional training and mentoring. She is site principal investigator for a state-funded grant whose mission is train professionals from a variety of disciplines to provide enhanced care for families on Ohio Medicaid, with a special emphasis on care of developmental and mental health conditions.
Froehlich is also supervisor for a Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental Disabilities LEND interdisciplinary project which focuses on elucidating the needs of families in homeless shelters. Furthermore, Dr.

Neuroimaging; brain development; cognitive development; reading; dyslexia; reading difficulties; executive functions; attention; functional MRI; functional connectivity; EEG. Her PhD focused on characterizing event-related potentials in children and adults with dyslexia and learning disabilities.
After her completion of her PhD, Dr. Horowitz-Kraus conducted post-doctoral research at the University of Haifa and was the leader of school-based projects in Israel. In this project, she determined behavioral and electroencephalographic measures following intervention programs for children with learning disabilities as well as studies aimed at developing objective measures to assess the effectiveness of interventions for children with reading difficulties. In , Dr. Horowitz-Kraus was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship and moved to the United States to join the Pediatric Neuroimaging Research Consortium at Cincinnati Children's to continue post-doctoral research using advanced neuroimaging tools including fMRI, DTI and EEG to better understand the role of executive functions in reading and in children with reading disabilities in order to develop more effective interventions.
