But within this condition exist millions of people who live unique lives. Join us for our three-part miniseries on bipolar disorder, where we talk to clinical and research experts from the Heinz C. Prechter Bipolar Research Program at Michigan Medicine to learn more about the science of bipolar disorder—diagnostics, genetics, and decision-making.
