The Vanderbilt Tourette Syndrome Working Group Journal Club is a monthly conference during which health practitioners from multiple disciplines review and discuss a peer-reviewed publication addressing Tourette syndrome and its comorbidities. The group convenes once monthly. At the beginning of the journal club, a designated presenter summarizes the article background, study methods, results, and conclusions. During the presentation and afterwards, attendees will discuss strengths and weaknesses of the article, interpretation of the findings and results within the context of routine clinical practice, and opportunities for optimization of current practice and research endeavors. At the conclusion of the session, individual providers will be asked to share challenging cases relevant to the journal article topic.
