About the course

Are you a parent or clinician interested in understanding how health in the months before conception shapes pregnancy and neurodevelopment? This on-demand course offers a unique opportunity to learn directly from Richard E. Frye, MD, PhD, a child neurologist and leading researcher who has spent decades studying metabolic and mitochondrial dysfunction in neurodevelopmental disorders. This first course in the series introduces the framework the rest of it is built on: what the protocol is and is not, its three clinical modules, the two-tier testing structure, the four-level action framework that grades every test from standard care to research-only, and the five-step algorithm that ties them together.
