Translational Research Course for Basic Scientists and Clinicians in Movement Disorders
An online course from Course Directors Lorraine Kalia and Sheng-Han Kuo and The International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society (MDS).
Bridge the gap between the lab and the clinic to help hasten desperately needed therapies.
Experts from across the spectrum of research and clinical care will gain a detailed understanding of how rapidly emerging advancements in movement disorders translate into practical, evidence-based practices – so you have the framework to develop more clinically relevant findings, and better apply them with patients.
