#TouretteWorldStage #Varese2024
Thank you for this wonderful collaboration and for making another –attendance record-breaking!– meeting happen!
We could not have hoped for a better combination of scientific programme, educational events, and social & cultural activities.
A few highlights:
- Tic e Tourette a Scuola; an independent event, dedicated to teachers and educators, held in Italian at Aula Magna ’’Granero Porati’’.
- TS-school 2024; a training course for TS beginners, open to clinicians and other professionals interested in the clinical aspects of TS. This year's TS-school was offered also in Italian via simultaneous interpretation, a feature made available by the University of Insubria-Department of Medicine and Technological Innovation. (DIMIT)
- "Lady Tourette" theatre production; an initiative by AIST Onlus, Italian Tourette Syndrome Association and both the institutions above.
- Social event-dinner at Villa Panza combined with a guided tour of the Collezione Panza, contemporary art collection.
