The Neuroscience of Periods & PMS with Dr Emilė Radytė | Oct 11

​Ever wanted to have breakfast with a neuroscientist? Join Dr. Emilė Radytė for a morning of women's brain health insights, warm breakfast & Q&A. ALL BACKGROUNDS WELCOME.

​Up to 90% of people who menstruate experience PMS symptoms, and 80% will experience painful periods at some point in their lifetime. So why do we still know so little about the brain science behind it?

​What you’ll learn

​Led by Dr Emilė Radytė, a neuroscientist specialising in hormonal brain health, we’ll explore:

• ​How your brain and hormones interact throughout the menstrual cycle

• ​The neural mechanisms behind PMS symptoms - why you feel what you feel

• ​New and emerging research reshaping how we understand hormonal health

• ​Evidence-backed tools and lifestyle supports to help regulate mood, cognition, pain, and more

• ​How to build a more empowered, science-literate, and self-compassionate relationship with your body and brain

• ​A chance to connect with others in a supportive space

• ​Q&A where you can ask our expert your questions
