Starting in July, The Michael J. Fox Foundation’s (MJFF) award-winning multimedia resources will debut a refreshed look and feel. The updated design will enhance our community’s experience, making it easier and more intuitive to navigate and engage with the Foundation’s educational podcast and webinar series. The new design brings an improved experience for patients, families, researchers and industry partners to better connect new and returning visitors with critical information on living with Parkinson’s and opportunities to get involved in the Foundation’s mission to eliminate Parkinson’s disease (PD).
“We’re seeing extraordinary momentum in Parkinson’s research, and this redesign reflects our commitment to making trusted, high-quality information easier than ever to access,” said Allison Boiles, MJFF vice president of communications. “Our free resources do more than just educate — they create onramps to action, helping people and families living with Parkinson’s connect directly to the research, tools and opportunities that can make a difference. By putting the latest information on research and care at people’s fingertips, we’re inviting the community to engage with us and help accelerate progress.”
