Expert Briefing: Tremor, Shakes, & Everything in Between
Wellness Wednesday: Expert Briefing Series
Tremor, Shakes, & Everything in Between: Parkinson's Motor Symptoms
Motor symptoms are among the most recognizable aspects of Parkinson’s disease. From tremor and rigidity to dystonia, dyskinesia, and changes in posture and gait, these symptoms can affect daily life in unique ways. We will explore the wide spectrum of motor symptoms, how they evolve, and strategies for managing them.
The Foundation's Expert Briefing series is intended to offer firsthand access to the latest research and updates from experts in the field. Expert Briefing webinars will include more scientific terms and concepts.
