About the AOPMC

A forum to further develop the field of Movement Disorders in the Asian & Oceanian region.

The Asian and Oceanian Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders Congress (AOPMC) occurs every two years, bringing together leaders across the region to collaborate and share ideas that advance movement disorders science and care. 
 

Purpose

The purpose of the AOPMC is consistent with the objectives of the MDS-AOS, which include:

• Facilitate communication between clinicians and researchers in the region
• Disseminate updated knowledge about movement disorders
• Improve quality of life and independence of movement disorders patients and carers
• Promote research and facilitate research collaborations in movement disorders
• Expose clinicians, researchers and healthcare professionals in the region to movement disorders initiatives and in so doing, encourage their membership in the MDS-AOS
