• The road ahead: 2020 January 5, 2020 Here at the SoPD, we are primarily interested in disease modification for Parkinson’s. While there is a great deal of interesting research exploring the causes of the condition, novel symptomatic therapies, and other aspects of Parkinson’s, my focus is generally on the science seeking to slow, stop or reverse the condition. At the start of each year, it is a…
• ALS: From ice bucket to centaur November 18, 2020 # # # # Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (or ALS) is the third most common neurodegenerative condition. It is characterised by the loss of motor neurons, which leads to loss of muscle control. As with Parkinson’s, there is no cure for ALS, and there are only two FDA approved therapies for the condition. Recently, a biotech company – called Amylyx Pharmaceuticals…

• Not dead, dormant dopamine neurons?!? January 18, 2020   Every textbook written about the condition will tell you that the classical pathological characteristic of Parkinson’s is the loss of dopamine neurons in the midbrain region of the brain.
