A Successful Spring Symposium

On April 5th, we held our 2nd annual Missouri Tourette Syndrome Spring Symposium at the Drury Inn . Nationally recognized Tourette Syndrome expert Dr. Michael Himle spoke on TS research and the newest behavioral therapies, including Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT). It was a great turn out with over 50 people attending.
