Given the variety of exercise programs available for people with Parkinson’s disease (PD), people may struggle to make decisions about what exercise to perform. Personalised exercise prescription may be key.

Join Dr CamilleBCarroll on 27 September at 6pm BST to learn about Accelerating Clinical Trials in Parkinsons (the EJS-ACT-PD initiative) and the advantages of trialing several therapies at the same time as part of a multi-arm multi-stage (MAMS) trial - buff.ly/2Z7xuor

First of two retweets that I've broken my hiatus from research advocacy for. Arguably this is by far the most important and relevant topic, that the annual EdinburghParkinsonsBranch lecture has had, for people with #Parkinsons today. Julie Jones presenting on exercise research.

Congratulations to @SaraRiggare on her Phd Thesis defence on Self Tracking and personalised care and science.

Both @SaraRiggare and Julie Jones research, are arguably far more relevant to people living with #Parkinsons today, than perhaps research into proteins or genes will be for the foreseeable future.
