Education and Awareness
The Michael J. Fox Foundation publishes a print newsletter, Accelerating the Cure, three times per year as well as a monthly e-newsletter, FoxFlash, to keep supporters updated on Parkinson's research progress. In 2010, the Foundation launched an audio podcast series on Parkinson's science, hosted by KQED Public Radio Host David Iverson. Living with Parkinson's is the Foundation's online source for information on PD (including an animation about how the brain is affected by Parkinson's), guides for the newly diagnosed and caregivers, stories from people living with the disease and additional resources.

The awareness of death, the consciousness of failure,

Which may be tainted with a self-conceit....”
