A podcast series hosted by the European Society for the Study of Tourette Syndrome (ESSTS).
We discuss the latest findings on Tourette syndrome, share stories, and create connections.
Every month we will talk about tics, associated comorbidities and lived experiences; our episodes are aimed at researchers, clinicians, patients and their families.
We interview authors whose papers have caught our attention, discuss hot topics that may seem controversial, share different ways of educating the community on TS and hopefully, we will all learn something about Tourette that we had yet to discover.
So please, tune in, turn up the volume, and keep on listening… 🎧
And if you find the episode interesting, hit subscribe and please share!

Eye blinking abnormalities in Tourette syndrome: Blink more or blink differently?

Saison 1 · Épisode 16

dimanche 22 février 2026 • Durée 27:17

For this episode we sit down with Dr Julius Verrel and Dr Alexander Münchau to delve into their recent publication (Parkinsonism and Related Disorders Journal) on eye blinking abnormalities in Tourette Syndrome. They offer a deep dive into the intricacies of eye blinking patterns, shedding light on the distinctions between normal blinking, blink tics, and potential pathological blinks.

We talk about the historical and recent studies comparing blink rates in individuals with Tourette Syndrome to healthy controls, and the challenges in distinguishing between typical and atypical blinks.

Dr Verrel highlights the study's focus on understanding the characteristics of blink tics, aiming to differentiate them from physiological blinks. Through meticulous analysis, the researchers employed manual and automated methods to observe blink patterns, considering features like duration, amplitude, and temporal distance. This examination aimed to uncover potential markers that signify tics, contributing to a better understanding of Tourette Syndrome.

Regarding the innovative use of high-resolution video recordings to dissect blink features with greater accuracy, Dr Münchau notes that ongoing collaborations with machine learning experts are set to enhance the precision of identifying atypical blinks. This technological advancement promises more refined diagnostic and research techniques, opening paths to potentially utilising blinking abnormalities as biomarkers for Tourette Syndrome.

Alexander Münchau studied medicine in Hamburg and Berlin, Germany. He spent 3 years at the Institute of Neurology, Queen Square in London. From 2001 to 2013 he worked in the Neurology Department of Hamburg University Hospital where he became Consultant in 2003. In 2013, he became head of the newly founded interdisciplinary Department of Paediatric and Adult Movement Disorders and Neuropsychiatry at the Institute of Neurogenetics and speaker of the Center for Rare Diseases at the University of Lübeck; since 2020, he is Director of the Institute of Systems Motor Science at the University of Lübeck.
