Have you ever wondered the potential link between the name of the Aspen course and movement disorders? It is much more than the location of Aspen, CO. The quivering Aspen tree has long captured the imagination because its leaves seem to tremble even in the gentlest breeze. As movement disorders specialists, we spend our careers trying to understand tremor, making the Aspen a fitting symbol that reminds us to look beyond what we see on the surface to uncover the underlying biology. Like the Aspen's interconnected root system, our collective science and collaboration are what ultimately allow us to transform observations into better treatments for our patients.
