DESCRIPTION:\n&nbsp\;\nSeminar Title: Premenstrual dysphoric disorder: Cli
 nical nuances and research gaps\nPresenter: Dr. Benicio Frey\, Professor\,
  Department of Psychiatry and Behavioural Neurosciences\, McMaster Unive
 rsity\n\nDr. Frey is a clinician-scientist\, professor in the Department o
 f Psychiatry and Behavioural Neurosciences at McMaster University\, and me
 dical director of the Women's Health Concerns Clinic at St. Joseph's Healt
 hcare Hamilton. His research focuses on the pathophysiological mechanisms 
 of mood disorders\, with an emphasis of female-reproductive life events.\
 n\nTalk Summary: Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is a prevalent an
 d pervasive mental health disorder that can be fully treated with proper m
 anagement. Its transient\, cyclic nature\, and its high rates of comorbid 
 conditions (e.g.\, mood\, anxiety\, trauma-related disorders) can make its
  accurate diagnosis often challenging for inexperienced clinicians. A deep
 er understanding of the underlying mechanisms behind hormone-related sensi
 tivity\, as well as how life stress can moderate hormone-related stress re
 sponse may assist in the choice of treatment. In this talk\, we will provi
 de an update on recent clinical\, mechanistic and treatment studies of PMD
 D and other related premenstrual disorders\, including some of the main ga
 ps for future research in this developing area.\n\n&nbsp\;
