Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative movement disorder affecting nearly 1 million Americans.

| Digital ExclusiveAmerican Society of Acupuncturists to Hold First Annual Meeting
The Board of the American Society of Acupuncturists will hold its first annual meeting in Albuquerque, New Mexico the weekend of March 4-5, 2016.
The attendance of the meeting proper will be limited to specific delegates of participating state associations, as well as NCCAOM, CCAOM, and ACAOM. There will be communications given via Skype with a number of organizations, and updated reports during the meeting on activities of the many, many other relevant organizations in the field. We deeply regret that we cannot have all groups address this meeting directly, but time is very tight, even with two days.
We send apologies to both the Integrative Health Policy Consortium (IHPC) and to the National Guild of AOM (NGAOM) for omitting them from the initial agenda. IHPC will be providing an update to the group, and NGAOM has directed us to their website as the best source of up-to-date information.
