[koglist] public talk on psychogenic movement disorders

The Memory and Language Lab and Department of Clinical Psychology & Addiction at Eotvos Lorand University cordially invite you to a talk by *Zoltan Mari* (Johns Hopkins University, School of Medicine, Baltimore) *Electrophysiological markers of psychogenic movement disorders* Movement disorder clinics around the globe are perplexed by the rising number of psychogenic cases, which pose frustrating challenges from both the diagnostic & therapeutic standpoints. As 'disease markers' are becoming a critically important research target in a host of other disorders, psychogenic movement disorders remain elusive. This talk will review past research milestones in the quest to establish diagnostic markers for psychogenic movement disorders and presents one specific research study that investigated the feasibility of using 'event related desynchronization' (ERD) as a possible measure to document psychogenic etiology in comparison with a more established EEG measure (Bereitschaftspotential) in this regard.
