MDS Congress 2016 [Berlin]

MDS Congress 2016 [Berlin]

The 20th International Congress of Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders was held in Berlin, Germany, this year. King’s Parkinson’s London team have been very busy this year and have as such presented a few key projects at the MDS congress 2016, see below for the posters.

In addition, Professor Ray Chaudhuri (also a faculty at the congress) was part of many key workshops and sessions in the congress. Key workshops and sessions from our team are listed below.

With such a successful MDS congress, the team is already working on many projects to present next year in Vancouver (MDS2017)! Good luck team!
