Dr. Max Tischfield gives an in-depth exploration of the current scientific landscape of Tourette Syndrome, including the latest research on the brain, genetics, and neurodevelopmental pathways that contribute to TS. This session covers major discoveries that have shaped our understanding of the disorder, including insights into genetic risk factors, neural circuits involved in tic expression, and the interplay between neurodevelopmental processes and environmental influences.
Learn about emerging research topics, innovative study methods, and how these advances are informing the development of future treatment strategies. By providing a comprehensive, scientific foundation, this session sets the stage for a deeper dive into clinical approaches, behavioral interventions, and pharmacologic treatments later in the series.
