Description
The ENLIGHT Parkinson's Initiative: Education and Research to Improve Care (ERICA-Park) is a joint effort of academic clinical and basic research teams from several ENLIGHT universities, aiming to advance the understanding of motor and non-motor phenomena in PD, as well as the pathophysiological events leading to disease onset and progression. The consortium groups clinical researchers, with access to large cohorts of patients in different European countries, and fundamental researchers involved in animal research, molecular biology, microbiology and basic neuroscience. As such, this collaborative effort has the potential to integrate translational research into patient management.
