In recognition of Parkinson’s Awareness Month and World Parkinson’s Day on April 11th, I have organized a two-hour webinar to increase students' knowledge and awareness of Parkinson’s disease. The event will feature two guest speakers from Parkinson's Association and UC San Diego who will deliver in-depth information on various aspects of Parkinson's disease, and I will be facilitating by introducing the speakers and wrapping up the session.The webinar will be divided into two parts:Part One:1. Introduction to Parkinson's Disease2. Understanding the Impact of Parkinson's on the Brain3. Early Signs and Diagnosis of Parkinson’s Disease4. Managing Parkinson's Disease: Treatment Options5. Current Research and Future Outlook6. Q&A and Open Discussion
Part Two:1. Living with Parkinson's Disease2. Exercise and Movement for Parkinson’s Patients3. Nutrition and Lifestyle Choices for Parkinson’s Patients4. Caregiving: Supporting Loved Ones with Parkinson’s5. Q&A and Open Discussion
Given the educational value and the significant impact of the content being covered, I would like to offer flex credit to all faculty members who participate in the webinar. I believe the event will be an excellent opportunity for faculty to enhance their understanding of Parkinson’s disease, as well as to further their professional development in a meaningful way.
