During our March webinar, "Women & Parkinson's:
Strategies and Stories," Dr. Indu Subramanian discussed the
unique symptoms experienced by women with Parkinson's, how
gender roles may impact care and support, and shared fifteen things
that women need to know about Parkinson's.? Li Jiang and Sylvie
Parent also joined us to talk about the challenges they face as women
living with Parkinson's, and the strength they've found
within themselves and in the Parkinson's community.
