Research Roundtables hosted by The Michael J. Fox Foundation in various locations across the country bring patients and caregivers the latest news, advances and breakthroughs in PD research from the world’s top neuroscientists. On Saturday, November 21, the third of three 2009 Research Roundtables will be Webcast live to allow you to hear from our expert panel and submit your own questions on PD and the state of research toward a cure -- from the comfort of your own personal computer. Register now!

The November 21 Virtual Roundtable will be Webcast live from New York City. The program will feature MJFF CEO Katie Hood and Vice President of Research Programs Todd Sherer, PhD. During Q&A, audience questions (both from attendees in the room and in the Webcast audience) will be addressed by members of MJFF’s Executive Scientific Advisory Board.

Log on at 11 a.m. (U.S. ET) on Saturday, November 21, to view the presentation and submit your own questions to our panelists. If you cannot join us in real time, a video will be available on our Web site shortly after the event. Either way, you’ll hear the latest PD news from our world-class research staff and scientific advisors.

Virtual Roundtables are made possible by a generous lead gift from Solvay Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
