The Parkinson Study Group (PSG), in collaboration with the Huntington Study Group (HSG), Dystonia Study Group (DSG), Tourette Syndrome Study Group (TSSG), Cooperative Ataxia Group (CAG), and Tremor Research Group (TRG), will present the 27th Annual Symposium on Etiology, Pathogenesis, and Treatment of Parkinson’s Disease and Other Movement Disorders on Tuesday, October 1, 2013, at Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth Hotel, in Montreal, Canada.  The peer-reviewed program includes both platform and poster presentations. Abstracts that have been published previously cannot be accepted with the exception of abstracts submitted to the World Parkinson Congress that will be published in the Journal of Parkinson's Disease.  Authors will be asked to disclose relationships with funding sources and manufacturers of commercial products discussed in the presentation.  Authors need not be associated with the study groups.


There is no registration fee for attending the Symposium. An award will be given to the best PD and the Other Movement Disorders abstracts presented either in platform or poster format.  Limited financial support may be available to support attendance of those individuals within 5 years of completing training, and whose abstract submissions are accepted for poster or platform presentation.  Special consideration will be given to residents and fellows.  Deadline to submit regular abstracts is now closed. 

 

Late Breaking Research Abstracts: Authors whose data from research analyses were not available until after the regular abstract deadline are invited to submit an abstract.  The abstract should represent original work not previously published and should be of scientific or public interest.  The Symposium Committee will accept a limited number of abstracts for platform or poster presentation as late breaking research. Late breaking research abstracts must be submitted by Monday, July 1, 2013 by 5:00 p.m. Eastern.
