Clinical Movement Disorders Fellowship

Parkinson Canada is pleased to offer the Clinical Movement Disorders Fellowship (the “Program”) as a strategic initiative to encourage promising young clinicians to enter clinical training in the subspecialty of Movement Disorders, which will include Parkinson’s disease. The purpose of this post-residency training is to provide expertise in the diagnosis and management of Parkinson’s disease and may include other movement disorders.  Clinical training is the largest component of this hands-on program (at least 80%) but could include an element of research.  However, this application will be evaluated solely on the clinical component.  Parkinson Canada wishes to ensure that each Canadian with Parkinson’s receives appropriate medical expertise, drug treatment, continuous care, education, respect, dignity, help and hope.  This Program is an important component of Parkinson Canada’s plan to achieve its goal of ensuring that these critical elements in the day-to-day management of Parkinson’s disease are accessible and available
