save topic

Parkinson's disease (PD), a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system, impairs the sufferer's motor skills, speech, and other functions. Each year there are 20 new cases of Parkinson's diagnosed per 100,000 people. Given the aging population, the drug market is huge. There is also a booming industry in treatment research, which includes drug therapy, gene therapy, neuron-protection, and neural transplants.
