Webinars

As a part of our effort to offer an enriched and engaging online content, we introduce the ESSTS webinar series; leading experts from all around the world share the latest advances in TS, valuable insight, case studies and historical information.

We shall do our very best to deliver one webinar in the first week of every month.

If you wish to be notified directly, please subscribe to our newsletter below.

Gilles is in the air!

In our new podcasts series we discuss the latest findings on Tourette syndrome, share stories, and create connections.

Every month, (we are only warming up!), we will talk about tics, associated comorbidities and lived experiences; our episodes are aimed at researchers, clinicians, patients and their families.

We shall interview authors whose papers have caught our attention, discuss hot topics that may seem controversial, share different ways of educating the community on TS and hopefully, we will all learn something about Tourette that we had yet to discover.

So please, tune in, turn up the volume, and keep on listening… 🎧
And if you find the episode interesting, hit subscribe and please share!

The kind you await with bated breath.
