It was a wonderful night supporting the PARC and sharing a perspective of hope for those living with Parkinson's disease today, for the families who stand beside them, and for all those who will come after us.🌷

Incredibly proud of our residents for consistently dedicating time from their demanding schedules to teach medical students. Such mentorship not only enriches learning, but may inspire the next generation to pursue the remarkable field of neurology! 😊
Very proud of these rockstars, Jared Barkes PGY-3 child neuro resident and Andrew Azdell PGY-3 adult neuro resident, for their dedication to teaching our medical students. They were awarded with the Mulholland Teaching Award for Residents and Fellows today! 💙🧡
