Listen as we sit down with Dr. Walter Koroshetz, former Director of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke. We cover many diverse areas with Dr. Koroshetz including the alarming uptick in Parkinson’s diagnoses, the possibility of environmental causes, the origination of Parkinson’s in the gut, and, of course, Dr. Koroshetz shares his thoughts on Parkinson’s advocacy. He uses the passing of the National Plan to End Parkinson’s as a prime example of what advocacy is capable of doing and how it’s going to take the broad group, the National Plan Council, to continue to push this legislation into action.

Join us for our first episode of the Parkinson’s Policy Podcast as we sit down with Representative Kyle Mullins (D-PA). Rep. Mullins shares his personal passion for fighting for those with neurodegenerative disorder and how he helped secure $5M in budgetary spending for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to be spent on research grants for qualifying institutions. He also emphasizes how local, state, and federal advocacy can ultimately affect change for those living with neurological disorders. We are so grateful the Representative shared his time with us for this inaugural episode.

The Parkinson's Policy Podcast is here! Listen to George and Margaret in this introductory episode! Through this podcast, we hope to provide meaningful discussions with key stakeholders that ultimately initiate action and boost awareness. Only together can we power towards action.
