Read what other Palatucci Advocacy Leadership Forum graduates are saying about their training experience.

"Palatucci is a precious gift and considering the hard fact that only three international graduates are accepted each year — I think I am truly blessed! I continue to be a neurologist working in India just the way I was before I became a PALFER. However, I feel that my life was transformed by PALF. I can now believe in the impossible and work to make it happen — albeit, one tiny step at a time!"
— Mamta Bhushan Singh, MBBS, MD, DM

"The entire Palatucci Advocacy Leadership Forum experience is remarkable. After completing the Forum, one feels they are now part of a new breed of future neurologists. Graduates are well groomed to go out and become a major force in all aspects of advocacy—for patients, for the disenfranchised, the meek, those in fear, and those that have lost hope."
— Constantine Moschonas, MD

"Since an early age I have been interested in politics and public policy. In college I had decided to pursue a career that would help me be a positive force in people's lives on a one-to-one basis rather than on the broader political stage. Now, as a mature neurologist with a broad 30+ year perspective on the history and development of neurology and the changes in our patient care delivery, I decided to get involved in advocacy for my patients and my colleagues. I had known the late Dr. Don Palatucci and his efforts to create a state neurology society for California, and was a charter member. When a vacancy on the Board of this society became available several years ago, I applied for it."
— Steven Holtz, MD, FAAN

"I recently had meetings with a major philanthropist to the Child Neurology Foundation and another with the former speaker of the house of the PA legislature to discuss working together on advocacy for developmental disabilities. It really helped to remember the key messages and how to keep bringing the discussion back to my goals for the meeting. Thanks again."
—Lawrence W. Brown, MD
