Parkinson's next Cdn. Club topic Canadian outcomes remain clear The Canadian Club of Halton Peel is hosting speaker Dr. Rick Paulseth for a talk on Parkinson's disease on Thursday, March 26. Paulseth is the associate clinical professor at McMaster University in its division of neurology and department of medicine, as well as the director of the MS Clinic at Hamilton Health Sciences Centre. He is also a graduate of the University of Western Ontario where he received his Neurology Fellowship. The topic of the talk is Parkinson's Disease: Diagnosis, Research and Treatment. Paulseth will provide historical background on Parkinson's disease and discuss the steps that are taken in its diagnosis, the treatment options and ongoing research efforts. First described by British physician Dr. James Parkinson in 1817, symptoms of the disease include: tremors at rest, slowness in movement, rigidity, gait disturbance, instability with posture and falls. "Parkinson's is a slow, relentless and progressive disorder that affects only approximately three people per 1,000 in the general population but up to two people per 100 of those older than age 60," stated a news release. "It affects men more than women and is typically diagnosed between the ages of 60 and 70, although young onset, under age 40, occurs in five to 10 per cent of all those affected." The talk will be held at the Oakville Conference Centre, 2515 Wyecroft Rd. Registration and a cash bar open at 6 p.m., followed by a dinner and speaker from 7-9:30 p.m. Tickets cost $35 for members, $45 for nonmembers and $20 for students.
