The theme for this year’s annual congress, prevention from prodromal to palliative, follows the public discourse on eliminating Parkinson’s disease’s inherent adversity from the general population. To optimize inclusion, prevention has a broad scope, ranging from the earliest prodromal stages until palliative care.
The programme includes a keynote by Thomas Foltynie (UCL), presentations of promising research by various Dutch research labs, discussions with patient researchers and researchers, as well as poster presentations for researchers to display their works.

The ParkinsonVereniging will share how they communicate to their members, experience experts will provide practical tips and tricks on how to communicate your research, and you will work together on your own text. All written texts can be published on the website of the ParkinsonVereniging afterwards.
Moreover, the best summary will be published in the magazine of the ParkinsonVereniging! We start at 13.00h and we will close the pre-conference with drinks at 17.00h. This will be a great opportunity to disseminate your work and to connect to other junior researchers in the field.
