As we celebrate Women’s History Month and the important contributions women have made, it seems fitting today to introduce you to Dr. Krithi Irmady. She is a current recipient of APDA’s most prestigious research award, the George C. Cotzias Fellowship. This Fellowship is a career development award, providing three years of research funding to a physician-scientist at the start of his/her career.

The good news is that treatment is available to help people with PD reduce OFF periods and maintain their best quality of life.
