In this post Simon maps out some of what is scheduled to occur in 2021 with regards to clinical research focused on disease modification for Parkinson’s (i.e. the primary focus is on the science seeking to slow, stop or reverse PD).

This is a fantastic read. But its super frustrating that trials can take up to 2 years to post results. I know there needs to be peer reviews but surely that only takes a few months.

I suspect that there may be some underground experiments as well. One of these behind the scenes experiment was of patient-financed stem cells experiment which ultimately came to the surface last year. My sixth sense says that there may be a sudden breaking news of some serious developments in the near future

Blimey. Lots of work done there by Simon. Sadly, I suspect that as usual no body is going to be able to abandon their levadopa in the near future 😕
