Patient Council Essential Tremor Advisory Council
|
The Patient Council Advisory Board is an exclusive network of Essential Tremor Patients who serve as advisors to help inform/guide DSF.
The purpose is to help gain new insights and advice to explain Essential Tremor problems or explore new opportunities by increasing healthy, high-quality discussions. The role of the DSF Patient Council is not to make decisions but rather to provide current knowledge and critical thinking to assist DSF in answering questions and challenges living with ET.
“Our progress depends on uniting the ET Community and listening to their voices. All the research in the world doesn’t matter without the voices of the only people who can answer the question of whether science is helping
— those of us living with the disease.
The Diann Shaddox Foundation continues to serve as that link, putting strategic funding toward projects that matter most to patients.
