I am delighted to announce that our next zoom session will be taking place at 7.30 pm London time on Monday, the 24th of January.

Professor Roger Barker will be talking to us about: "Is it possible to repair the brain in Parkinson's disease using cell-based therapies?"

Professor Roger Barker is a Professor of Clinical Neuroscience at the University of Cambridge and Consultant Neurologist at the Addenbrooke’s Hospital Cambridge. He is a primary investigator in the Wellcome – MRC Cambridge Stem Cell Institute and the Director of the MRC funded UKRMP Stem and Engineered cell hub. His research seeks to better define the clinical heterogeneity of two common neurodegenerative disorders, namely Parkinson’s and Huntington’s disease, and their treatment especially with experimental cell and gene-based approaches.
