SoPD blog post from Simon: Parkinson's research in 2019 - things to look out for this year.

As you might expect, it's a very long post!

Thank you Jeffreyn.

This article is interresting but do not gives us PWPs much hope. These trials are years long.

[jeffreyn in reply to Xenos]

You're right, Xenos.

To make it clearer, instead of saying "things to look out for this year", perhaps I should have used the word "milestones" or "progress".

Really interesting on 2 grounds

1) There is just so much stuff that is positive. I recall Hikoi's comment to the effect I don't want to have PD, but if I have to have it, I'd much rather have it now than 50 years ago. There is just so much good stuff its hard to keep up

2) One of the bits of stuff it referenced is the SPARK trial. I start Monday...

(Oops - SPARK trial not PASEDENA, although they are almost identical)
