S5 - Episode 7 - Tourette Together

Dr. Christine Conelea is a star in the Tourette research field (and an important support beam for Tourette's Podcast in the process). She has an fun energy for tackling TS research questions, but isn't content letting the results of her work (or anyone else's) sit quietly in the vaults. Instead, she wants the Tourette community to know what questions the scientists are researching, and even question their relevance. How can scientists know what's really important to the people who live with the disorder they're studying? And how can the Tourette community better understand what scientists are doing? Dr. Conelea is all about the creating connections of mutual information to maximize benefits on both ends. Fascinating talk here with Dr. Conelea about Tourette research and how Touretters can help to advance it. Tourette's Podcast is made possible by the support of the Tourette Association of America, https://tourette.org/.  @cconelea Tourette scientists directory https://www.treatingtourettetogether.org/ Lele Pons opens up about OCD, Tourette TAA Virtual Conference

Om Podcasten

Authentic conversations about Tourette Syndrome, produced by an insider who isn't interested in the ol' one-dimensional take on what it's like to have TS. On each episode, host Ben Brown talks with a fellow Touretter about his or her history, tics, social interactions and daily management of Tourette's -- whether by masking it, owning it, medicating it, or something altogether different. It's engaging, funny, heavy, real. Get ready to meet people who blow away the standard portrayal.
