Since 1987, the Parkinson's Study Group (PSG) and Movement
Disorders Society (MDS) have co-sponsored an annual symposia
on "Etiology, Pathogenesis and Treatment of Parkinson's
Disease" and "Hyperkinetic Movement Disorders,"
preceding the annual meeting of the American Neurological Association.
These annual symposia consist of peer-reviewed platform and poster
presentations designed to communicate recent research advances
in the fields of Parkinson's disease and other movement disorders
to professionals in neurology and related disciplines. On October
18, 1998, the HSG, in cooperation with the Movement Disorders
Society (MDS), chaired by Mark Guttman, MD, and his committee
of J. Timothy Greenamyre, MD, PhD, Kathleen Shannon, MD, and
Carol Moskowitz, RN, sponsored a symposium on the Etiology, Pathology,
and Treatment of Huntington's Disease. Abstracts of platform
and poster presentations for this were published in the September
1998 issue of Movement Disorders. |
