Presidential Lectures 

The Presidential Lectures are a cornerstone of International Congress, inviting some of the field’s most esteemed honorees to share the research and topics that have most interested them through their storied careers.  

Each year, MDS recognizes exceptional contributions with two awards named for the co-founders of the International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.
