Parkinson Study Group: Advisor Program
The Parkinson Study Group (PSG) Mentoring Committee has an Advisor Program for new investigators who are initiating a research career or continuing work in an existing research area.
A bank of advisors who are willing to help investigators find a local mentor in their area (both research and geographic) or to provide general advice for pursuing specific research funding sources (foundations, etc.) are available. The advisors are not mentors per se, but rather facilitate finding a mentor or help the investigator begin a research career in a certain area. The PSG continually recruits advisors and anyone wishing to participate as an advisor can submit their information via this link: PSG Advisor Data Bank Survey.

After receiving your application and CV, the following steps will be taken:
- We will select an appropriate advisor from our databank of volunteers;
- We will forward the name/email of the selected advisor to you within 7 business days;
- You will then be able to contact the advisor via email to introduce yourself and set up an appropriate means of contact.
Both the advisor and advisee will keep confidential any information received or obtained as a result of participating in the program that is identified as confidential, or would be reasonably expected to be confidential, unless they agree otherwise.
We will solicit feedback from those using this program periodically. Questions regarding this program can be directed to Roseanna Battista at Roseanna Battista.
