Cutting-edge research
Movement disorders investigators are engaged in a spectrum of translational and clinical research including multiple clinical trials and investigator-initiated projects funded by grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, as well as from foundations such as the Michael J. Fox Foundation and The Parkinson’s Foundation. Our cutting-edge research includes investigations into disease mechanisms, diagnostics and novel treatment approaches.
Bench Research
Also known as basic science research, PMDC conducts bench research in the laboratory.
Clinical Research
Clinical research investigations are essential to advance understanding of the biological causes of Parkinson’s Disease and other movement disorders and develop novel treatments.
