Professor William T. O’Connor, from University of Limerick Medical School will hold an online workshop on how to use our brains to beat stress and worry, on Monday April 20th @ 16:00. On behalf of the Migraine Association of Ireland, we would like to thank Prof. O’Connor for his time and his help with our Online Programme.

This session will touch on recent neuroscience findings on how our brain responds to worry and stress, and will provide various strategies to overcome them.

Professor William T. (Billy) O’Connor is Foundation Chair and Head of Teaching and Research in Physiology at the University of Limerick Medical School. His research focus includes an understanding of illness of mind and brain as a disorder of the nerve network, and in the emerging field of neuro-education – the brain science of learning, which arose from his long-standing interest in education, particularly those factors which allow the human brain to learn optimally. Billy retains a strong commitment to scientific outreach and communication. This is best illustrated through his popular Inside-the-Brain website, Twitter @InsideThe_Brain and Facebook  accounts, which report on the latest findings from the world of brain research.
