FND Society

In this episode we speak with Dr Selma Aybek about her pathway into FND research, neuroimaging in FND, the implications for reducing stigma and unhelpful historical dichotomies or dualistic approaches in mind-body disorders. Next, we discuss the utility of lumping vs splitting given the heterogeneity of FND, as well briefly discussing outcome measures, also capturing comorbidities, and patient quality of life.
