Published 4 years, 3 months ago
Description
Parkinson’s disease changes: its biology and symptoms start even before the cardinal movement issues and evolve decades after diagnosis. In the first episode of our new podcast series “Parkinson’s Science POV,” MJFF Chief Scientific Officers discuss strategies to stop disease progression at every stage. This episode covers our Foundation’s approach to preventing cognitive changes and falls and to moving toward a world where no one receives a diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease.
