Expert Briefing: Research Update: Working to Halt PD
Wellness Wednesday: Expert Briefing Series
There is still a lot we don’t know about Parkinson’s disease (PD), and through research, efforts are being made to close the gaps in our knowledge and understanding. In addition to the development of new therapies for symptom management, research also seeks to find ways to stop progression and ultimately end PD. During this EB, we will learn about current research that is taking various approaches to develop a treatment that may significantly slow PD’s progression.
