About this listen

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


Research into conditions like bipolar disorder cannot happen without the participation of hundreds of people who sign up for research studies and programs like the Heinz C. Prechter Bipolar Research Program. In this episode, we’ll unpack wellness—how we define and measure it healthcare and research settings. We’re joined by Dr. Alexandra Vinson, assistant professor of Learning Health Sciences and co-lead of the Prechter Bipolar Disorder Learning Community. Stephanie Prechter, artist, philanthropist, a bipolar disorder research participant with lived experience and board member of the Prechter Program, and Dr. Sarah Sperry, director of the Emotion and Temporal Dynamics Lab and associate director of the Prechter Program.
