Winter issue of Progress, our Parkinson's research magazine, out now

1 February 2013

The winter 2012/13 issue of Progress, our Parkinson's research magazine, is now available to download or order.

As always, Progress is jam-packed with all the latest Parkinson's research news.

All Parkinson's UK members will receive a copy of Progress from today, together with the latest issue of The Parkinson, our membership magazine.

Healthy body, healthy brain

Often in research our focus is on new drugs and treatments, but in this issue we're taking a look at the role lifestyle and environment has to play in Parkinson's.

Can making subtle changes to day-to-day life help to manage certain symptoms or even slow the course of the condition?

We explore whether making changes to diet, exercise and other aspects of daily life can really make a difference to people with Parkinson's and what the current research tells us.

Over to you...

This issue of Progress is also packed with stories, news and views on research from people living with Parkinson's:

• Sheila Roy takes us inside a groundbreaking gene therapy clinical trial
• Wesley Carr shares his experiences as a research volunteer
• And our supporters report from a recent visit to the Parkinson's UK Brain Bank
