About Us
Causes
In most cases, the cause of Parkinson’s disease is unknown. Better understanding of the complex genetic, environmental, aging and other factors that lead to Parkinson’s would be game-changing in our pursuit of preventive and therapeutic treatment options.
Medications & Treatments
While available therapies can treat some symptoms, people with Parkinson’s urgently need better treatments to improve quality of life and slow or stop disease progression.
Symptoms
Parkinson’s disease symptoms are different for different people. Some are hard for even doctors to detect. Others are obvious even to an untrained eye. Visit a movement disorder specialist if you think you’re experiencing Parkinson’s symptoms.
We aspire to go out of business
We work to steward donations wisely and keep a tight rein on expenses. We are proud of our track record of efficiency, with 88 cents of every dollar spent since inception going straight to our programs.
We operate with focus and determination in everything we do. We won’t stop until a cure is found. We’re on it.
We take pride in the accomplishments we’ve made so far. But ultimately we have only one definition of success: scientific solutions that produce tangible improvements in patients’ lives.
