The 2nd edition of the TS-school was held online after having received numerous requests from colleagues who will not be able to join physically the upcoming event in Varese.
Attendees from 12 countries joined us live on Wednesday, 7 February 2024, for a 3-hour training course, covering assessment of tics and differential diagnosis, co-occurring conditions in TS, pharmacological treatment, psychological intervention and DBS, and 2 clinical case-presentations, including assessment and treatment.
The talks were followed by a 1-hour Q&A session with a few colleagues taking the stage to address questions and participate in the ongoing discussions.
As announced during the course, the video recording and the original speakers' slides are available to registered attendees and active ESSTS members.
