Over 3,000 delegates from 70 countries attended WPC 2010 in Glasgow, Scotland. Here’s what some delegates had to say about WPC 2010: “I not only learned new things – scientific research issues – but more importantly, it was a reminder that the drive of my learning is to benefit those affected by Parkinson’s. I was inspired by the people with Parkinson’s who attended, sent videos and presented.” Clinician “Every session was filled with a brilliant head of the field scientific researcher who explained (their topic) in a straightforward, comprehensive manner.” Researcher “I could see how everyone, from the best scientists to the individual Parkinson’s sufferer, can have a real role to play in helping to overcome this disease. I had thought that the scientific research was further advanced than it is. I also saw that there are great possibilities for developing ways to improve the quality of life for people with Parkinson’s.” Person with Parkinson’s Start planning now to attend WPC 2013: November 2012: Opening date for submission of videos for the WPC 2013 video competition December 2012: Opening date for submission of abstracts January 2013: Registration opens for conference sessions and accommodation July 2013: Early Bird registration ends Share this post: Your Story Matters: Inspire and Connect Inspire hope and connect with others by sharing your Parkinson’s journey.
