2026 MDS Travel Grant Award!

Exciting News: 2026 MDS Travel Grant Award!

​I am thrilled to share that I have been selected as an International Congress Travel Grant Awardee for the 2026 International Congress of Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders!

​This grant will support my travel to Seoul, Korea, this coming October, where I will be presenting my latest abstract, “Bridging the Genomic Gap: Ancestry-Aware Polygenic Risk and Variant Discovery in African Parkinson’s Disease Cohorts.”

​This research is deeply important to me, and I am grateful for the opportunity to share these findings with the broader scientific community to help advance our understanding of Parkinson’s disease across diverse populations.

​I have attached some documentation regarding the award and my registration for those interested in the details:

Right, Dr. I would love to see you too.
