We're delighted to announce funding for 5 innovation grants -
including projects exploring stem cells, swallowing and
constipation.
We need to know how and why certain nerve cells in the brain in
Parkinson’s die in order to find a cure.
We fund projects pursuing all avenues of research that work towards
new and better treatments for Parkinson's and a cure.
We also fund research studies that focus on improving quality of
life for people with Parkinson's.
How you can help
We are closer than ever to finding a cure, but we need your
help.
Our research is totally dependent on voluntary donations.
 One donated brain
can be used in up to 50 research studies.
