The American Parkinson’s Disease Association is sponsoring a TedMed Live Special Program.

Researchers, clinicians, and patients will discuss challenges facing Parkinson's disease. We will watch a professor learn a dance, and then find out why an understanding of motor control is crucial to the future of medicine. As part of the event, the Atlanta Ballet Fellowship Ensemble will perform an original piece by ballet mistress Sarah Hillmer.

Come and join the scientific and artistic communities in supporting Parkinson's disease research!

This event is free and open to the public. Seats are available on a first come, first serve basis.
