NY Flute Fair: Focal Hand Dystonia and the Working Musician - Panel discussion with Stephanie Mortimore, Dr. Steven Frucht, Eric Phinney, and Abhik Mukherjee. Moderated by Caity Massoud.

Thank you Stephanie Mortimore, Dr. Frucht, Eric Phinney, and Abhik Mukherjee, for making such a huge stride in the area of Focal Hand Dystonia awareness and open communication with the public. This has to be the first panel of musicians with dystonia joining together at a conference to share their insight and experience. What progress!!!
