NAPS Co-Principal Investigator Dr. Brad Boeve teams up again with Dr. Mike Silber, a member of the NAPS Scientific Advisory Board, for another episode on REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) in the Mayo Clinic Sleep Medicine Podcasts.

In this podcast, the team explores ethics and empathy. Should we tell patients with dream enactment behaviors of their risk of developing Parkinson’s disease or related disorders? And, if so, how should a health care provider deliver this information?

This episode continues their series dedicated to RBD, so make sure to subscribe for updates on future episodes.
