We know many people have questions when it comes to Parkinson’s disease (PD) and genetics, such as “Will I get PD if my mom/dad had it?”, “Should I get genetic testing?”, “Are certain ethnicities genetically more likely to get PD?” and more. We invite you to join us for our free Spanish-language webinar Enfoques en la Enfermedad de Parkinson: Genética – ¿la enfermedad de Parkinson se hereda? to get answers to all of these questions and more. Our expert speakers will give an overview of genetics and PD and answer questions from the audience.

Our speakers will share their insights on:
  • The causes of Parkinson’s disease
  • Why Parkinson’s disease is more common in members of some families
  • The role of genes and lifestyle in the risk of Parkinson’s disease
  • Current efforts to map the genetic factors of Parkinson’s disease
  • Why it is important for more Latinos to participate in research studies
  • Your personal questions about genetics and PD

The entire session will be conducted in Spanish, and we encourage you to share this invitation with others who may benefit from participating. Reserve your spot today by clicking the Register Now button below!
