Parkinson's Together Research

---

One of the missions of Parkinson's Together is to improve patient, physician and caregiver quality of life outside of the clinic. Part of how we achieve this is by exploring issues we learn about through our community service with patients and from current literature related to Parkinson's. Students involved with Parkinson's Together then organize their own projects based on topics they come across, and with the help of our professional research and physician mentors we decide how our team can best address the problem.

Currently we have two research studies underway, with our telemedicine study focused on improving virtual patient-physician appointments having gained IRB-approval. Additionally, through our individual members' interests, we have created educational materials about different out-of-clinic practices for persons with Parkinson's. These can be viewed in our "Perspectives" tab below
