Research news
Researchers compared medical records of over 92,000 people in the US with Parkinson’s, other neurological conditions and those without any, to show certain gut conditions increase the risk of Parkinson’s.
Largest study on retinal imaging in Parkinson’s identifies markers of Parkinson’s in eye scans with the help of artificial intelligence (AI).
The AI examined images of brain cells and was able to identify changes in key areas of the cell that are characteristic of the different known mechanisms that cause Parkinson’s.
Updated trial results show NLX-112 could treat motor symptoms as well as dyskinesia. If further trials are successful, we could have a valuable new Parkinson’s drug by 2030.
Results from a UK phase 2 clinical trial show that ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is safe for people with Parkinson's and can increase energy production in cells in the brain.
More research needed to investigate the impact of pesticides on brain cells in Parkinson’s
Development of new Parkinson’s treatments is only possible if everyone is part of the research process. We need your help to push promising research forward.
Latest study results show a new test could help diagnose Parkinson’s before damage occurs to brain cells.
Results from a study of a technique known as focused ultrasound have shown a benefit for people with Parkinson’s with movement problems, for up to a year after treatment.
An early phase clinical trial, funded by our supporters through the Parkinson's Virtual Biotech, suggests that the drug NLX-112 is safe and effective for people with Parkinson’s with levodopa-induced dyskinesias.
