The Hamilton Medical Legal Society presents a new virtual multi-part Educational Series:

PART 1: Understanding Functional Neurological Disorder (FND)

Presented by Dr. Miles Byworth, MD. FRCPC
Neurologist and Assistant Professor, McMaster University

What is FND? Functional Neurological Disorder is a condition at the intersection of neurology and mental health – where symptoms are real, but not caused by a typical structural disorder. Join us to learn about the diagnosis, symptoms, treatment, and the latest research.

Topics include:

• What is FND and how is it diagnosed
• Common Symptoms (i.e., seizures, weakness, movement disorders)
• Differences from other neurologic conditions
• Current treatment options

Date: Friday September 26, 2025
Time: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM
Location: Virtual – Zoom Link Provided Upon Registration (access available both live and recorded for viewing to all registrants at their own leisure)
Cost: $35 (members) or $50 (non-members) or $175 (group rate with up to 10 participant links provided – best value for law firms and multi-clinician practices!!)

*Please stay tuned for information on Parts 2 (Psychological Management of FND) and 3 (Managing Litigation Files for FND) coming later this fall/early winter 2026*
