PPMI: The Parkinson’s Study That Could Change Everything

Online

  Join us for a free event to learn how you can help accelerate Parkinson's research through the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI), a landmark study from The Michael J. Fox Foundation. REGISTER HERE: bit.ly/LetsTalkPPMI Since its launch in 2010, the PPMI has changed how research is done and what scientists know about the brain. PPMI follows people — with and without Parkinson's — over time to learn more about how disease starts and changes. The study shares its data set — the most robust in Parkinson's research — with scientists to help speed breakthroughs in PD treatment. Our speaker for this program is Emily Tamadonfar, MD. Dr. Tamadonfar is a Clinical Instructor of Neurology at Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California (USC). USC is one of 50 worldwide Clinical Sites for the PPMI. **Can't make this date? Register to receive a link to the recording.**
