Abstract

In this special episode of the North of Scotland Parkinson's Research Interest Group podcast series to mark International Women's Day 2024, we are delighted to have with us Richelle Flanagan from Ireland. Since attending the World Parkinson's Congress in 2019 following her own diagnosis of young-onset disease seven years ago, she has worked tirelessly to raise the profile of women with Parkinson's. Now a leading advocate for females with the disease across the globe, her pioneering work is driving forward long-overdue research into how Parkinson's and its medications specifically affect women of all ages. She is co-founder of the worldwide Women's Parkinson's Project and also "mymovesmatter.com" – a digital health app allowing users to track every aspect of their health and wellbeing to help them live the best life possible with Parkinson's.
