Parkinson Seminar Series
Once a month, Dr. Mischley provides a 1-hour lecture and 1-hr discussion (ish) related to a particular topic of interest.
The course is typically held on the 28th of each month, but because of a schedule conflict, the July Seminar will be on July 21, 2024.

Curriculum
Laurie Mischley, ND PhD MPH
Drawing from over two decades of clinical practice in Seattle and a deep commitment to advancing Parkinson's research, Dr. Mischley has devoted er career to understanding the nuanced nutritional needs of people with parkinsonism. Her educational background combines naturopathic medicine from Bastyr University, and epidemiology and nutritional sciences from the University of Washington, and her efforts have led to significant findings on key nutrients, such as coenzyme Q10, lithium, and glutathione deficiencies in Parkinsonism.
She is lead investigator of the Modifiable Variables in Parkinsonism (MVP) Study. This groundbreaking global observational study seeks to uncover the critical lifestyle factors that contribute to stopping and reversing this syndrome. www.MVP-Study.com
