Progress magazine Summer 2010 front coverThe Summer 2010 issue of Progress, our Parkinson's research magazine, is now available to download.

Under the spotlight in this issue is gene therapy, its potential to cure Parkinson’s and the latest results from clinical trials.

This issue of Progress has a brand new look and feel, reflecting our fresh, new identity and name change to Parkinson's UK earlier this year.

Latest research projects

In the magazine, we catch up with Dr Kevin Talbot on the progress of the £5million Monument Discovery Award at Oxford University.

The team of researchers is carrying out groundbreaking new research aimed at accelerating progress into finding a cure for Parkinson's.
