Neurological disorders can profoundly alter judgement, impulse control, and emotional regulation, contributing to behaviours that may cross legal boundaries. From traumatic brain injuries to neurodegenerative diseases, disruptions within key brain regions influence criminal actions in complex ways. Understanding the role of neurological dysfunction in offending challenges traditional notions of intent and responsibility, raising critical questions about justice, rehabilitation, and the ethical use of neuroscience within the legal system.

Functional neurological disorder (FND) is a condition where neurological symptoms arise from functional, rather than structural, brain issues. Sitting at the crossroads of neurology and psychiatry, FND reflects complex interactions between biological, psychological, and social factors. Psychotherapy, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy, plays a crucial role in addressing symptoms, enhancing emotional regulation, and improving quality of life. Emerging treatments, technological innovations, and personalised approaches are reshaping care, aiming to overcome stigma and deliver more accessible, tailored interventions. Ongoing research continues to refine strategies for managing this often-misunderstood disorder.

Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) is a brain-based condition where individuals experience genuine neurological symptoms—such as seizures or limb weakness—without structural abnormalities on medical tests. Emerging evidence highlights how emotional stress interferes with brain function, disrupting the brain-body communication that underpins movement, sensation, and self-awareness. FND lies at the crossroads of neurology and psychiatry, often linked to psychological triggers such as trauma or chronic stress. Though symptoms are involuntary and vary in intensity, targeted therapies combining physiotherapy, psychological support, and education have shown promise. Understanding the brain’s response to stress is key to effective intervention.
