In our latest [Neuro Talk](https://youtu.be/pHOPvioEv5Q), Parkinson's Foundation Associate Vice President of Research Programs Anna Naito, PhD, shares early results from [PD GENEration: Mapping The Future of Parkinson’s Disease](/advancing-research/our-research/pdgeneration "PD GENEration: Powered by the Parkinson’s Foundation"). Dr. Naito also highlights what the Parkinson’s Foundation is doing to reach new populations and to increase diversity in genetics research.
