SUMMARY:Understanding Smell Loss in Parkinson's Disease
DESCRIPTION:Loss of smell is a common but often overlooked symptom of Parkinson’s disease. In this informative webinar\, Dr. Zara Patel shares groundbreaking research on the link between olfactory dysfunction and Parkinson’s. \nDiscover how smell loss develops\, its potential as an early warning sign\, and what this could mean for earlier diagnosis and treatment. Dr. Patel will also highlight emerging therapies and innovative technologies aimed at restoring the sense of smell\, offering hope for improved quality of life and potentially slowing disease progression. \nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Zara M. Patel is a Professor of Otolaryngology – Head & Neck Surgery at Stanford University\, where she serves as Director of Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery and leads the Stanford Initiative to Cure Smell and Taste Loss. \nAn internationally recognized expert in olfactory disorders and sinus disease\, Dr. Patel’s research explores the connection between smell loss and neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. She is at the forefront of developing innovative treatments to restore the sense of smell and enhance quality of life for patients. \n\n\n\n\n\nParkinson Society BC appreciates all gifts\, as they allow us to continue to offer programs people with Parkinson’s disease and their carepartners rely on.
