Parkinson School, a place of support and information

The Parkinson School offers comprehensive support and information for people with Parkinson's and their families. As one of the original main goals of the Parkinson Verbund eV, the Parkinson Journal has taken on the task of realizing this.

The result is a unique series of lectures that covers the entire spectrum of topics related to our disease. The series of lectures aims to educate participants about Parkinson's disease and to deepen their knowledge. In online lectures lasting around one hour, all essential aspects of the disease are covered in order to enable those affected to meet their therapists and neurologists on an equal footing and to deal with the disease more confidently.
