Parkinson's Perspectives

Join us at the Neuroscience Fair! Through hands-on activities you’ll learn how Parkinson’s affects dopamine-producing neurons and why movement becomes slower, shakier, and harder to control. Experience how even simple tasks become challenging when the brain’s movement signals are disrupted by using shaky pens to simulate tremors and stiff gloves to mimic the rigidity experienced by people with Parkinson’s disease. It’s a powerful way to explore neuroscience, build compassion, and understand the importance of brain health and support.
