Abstract:
Though still shrouded in mystery, Gilles de la Tourette's syndrome is widely regarded as an archetypal neurodevelopmental disorder of central, motor control. New evidence that its cardinal manifestation - prominent tics - may be ameliorated by a peripheral, sensory intervention compels us to revise not only our conception of the syndrome, but of the motor system itself.
