A brain implant detects and lowers the symptoms of Parkinson's disease
The team tried the technique in 13 people with Parkinson's who had a particular problem with moving too slowly.
The first drug in the world that can block Parkinson's
A new therapy showing the ability to stop Parkinson's disease will begin clinical trials on humans in just 6 months.
The app against Parkinson's disease is born
Precisely today that Parkinson's disease has taken away Maurice White, founder and leader of Earth, Wind & Fire, we talk about how technology can help those suffering from this pathology. A team of British researchers is in fact experimenting with the use of an app to monitor the symptoms of Parkinson's disease, helping those who suffer from it in many ways. If at the beginning we thought that wearable devices were almost useless or just nice to look at, the introduction of parameter analysis… Read more
