The conference provides a unique platform to connect with experts, researchers, and other individuals living with Parkinson’s*. These connections can be invaluable for gaining new insights, sharing experiences, and finding support.
The conference features sessions on the latest research, treatments, and strategies for managing Parkinson’s. Attending these sessions can help you stay informed about the latest advancements and improve your quality of life.
The conference offers tailored sessions for caregivers and people living with Parkinson’s, focusing on wellbeing, symptom management, and supports like NDIS. These sessions can provide you with practical tools and emotional support.
