| The following information has been provided by Stanford Parkinson's Community Outreach at Stanford University.
There are several PD Symposiums this month, a couple of opportunities to learn the differences between PD and atypical parkinsonism (or "Parkinson's Plus"), several talks just for caregivers, the authors of The Parkinson's Plan continue to make appearances, there are a couple of research updates, and more - way more. Take a look!
Again, there are a half dozen webinars on the same day. We suggest you attend live events where you want to ask questions and watch the recordings of others. If you register NOW for anything of interest you will be sure to get a spot where attendance is limited, and you will be alerted when the recording is available.
About the list below, unless indicated, all webinars and virtual events are:
- Times listed as PT. (We are based in California, after all.)
- One-hour in duration. (Usually, the speaker talks for 30-40 minutes and there's a question-and-answer session for the remaining time.)
- If there is no speaker indicated, the speaker is unknown at the time of this email.
- For a general audience.
- Not focused on a single medication, branded treatment, or application. (Those are excluded.)
- Free.
We at Stanford Parkinson's Community Outreach occasionally attend a webinar and share our notes. Notes from excellent PD-focused webinars are often posted to our blog at https://parkinsonsblog.stanford.edu.
