About this listen

Join us for our three-part miniseries, Living with Bipolar Disorder.


Bipolar disorder is more than just mood swings. It’s a journey marked by intense highs of mania and debilitating lows of depression. But within this condition exist millions of people who live unique lives. Today, we're going to talk to three clinical and research experts from the Heinz C. Prechter Bipolar Research Program at Michigan Medicine to learn more about the science of bipolar disorder—diagnostics, genetics, and decision-making. We'll be hearing from Dr. Melvin McInnis, director of the Prechter Program, Dr. Paul Jenkins, associate professor of pharmacology and associate director of the Prechter Program, and Dr. Chandra Sripada, professor of psychiatry and philosophy.
