Great to be part of this amazing project which uses techniques like single cell type RNAseq, proteomics etc to unlock the secrets within the Parkinson’s brain. This wouldn’t be possible without the Parkinson's UK brain bank at Imperial College!

Fantastic to see this important Parkinson's UK funded clinical trial restart!


This is a great article which clarifies the potential of adaptive DBS, who will benefit and at what stage of development this new technology is at. Great work Parkinson's UK Research Communications team!

A truly pioneering project by the Parkinson's UK Race Equality in Research team, well done! Looking forward to where we can take this project in 2025 so as to make research inclusive!

Looking forward to attending the Synuclein2025 conference Synuclein 2025 with the great line up speakers and poster presentations this will be a great update of what is happening in the alpha-synuclein field!


World Parkinson’s day got off to a flying start with a 5km fun run at the Synuclein2025 conference today. Today is the 4th day of cutting edge research to better understand the role of alpha-synuclein in Parkinson’s. Parkinson's UK is proud to sponsor this event.


Congratulations to everyone who ran the London Marathon for Parkinson's UK , that is an amazing amount of fundraising! Well done!

As National Volunteering week comes to a close it was great to volunteer with 350 walkers at the Parkinson's UK Mote Park walk for Parkinson’s. Walks help raise £9m for our nurse appeal. Further details of walks happening across the UK visit our website events.parkinsons.org.uk/event/walk-par…


Thanks for sharing this Parkinson's UK Excellence Network funded national registry which will serve as a recruitment platform for all Parkinson’s clinical trials in the UK!
